🔴 PROGRAM:
The closing night will begin with presentations of the art created during the festival’s workshops. Participants have worked together to explore the theme of fibers in both art and nature, using techniques such as tufting, fabric weaving, and movement.
You will have the chance to see the results of workshops including "Structure Potential: We Are Fibrous", which focuses on architectural and artistic expressions of fiber, "Carpet Stories: Let’s Get High", a tufting workshop where participants designed and created unique, hand-made carpets, and "Fierce Bodies: Voices in Motion with Live Drums", a workshop that explored the connection between body, rhythm, and artistic expression.
These presentations showcase the talents and ideas of this year’s participants and the creative energy that the WeDo Festival is all about.
🔴 Gooral – Techno Healing Live Concert
The evening will conclude with a live concert by Gooral, an innovative Polish music producer who is renowned for his fusion of electronic music and traditional highland folk sounds. Gooral’s ability to blend genres like drum’n’bass and dubstep with the rich, ethnic music of Poland’s mountains creates a unique and electrifying experience. His dynamic live performances have made waves on the international music scene, and his closing concert will be a fitting finale to the festival. Whether you’re a fan of electronic beats, traditional sounds, or something in between, Gooral’s music is sure to make for an unforgettable evening.
Gooral will be joined on stage by Oda Neoma Granath Magelssen, whose soulful and captivating voice will enhance the fusion of highlander folk and electronic beats, creating a powerful and unforgettable musical experience.

🔴 About this year’s edition of the festival
For the sixth time, the We Do Festival of Polish Contemporary Arts & Culture will take place in Norway—this time at Hos Arne and various locations in Oslo!
In 2024, inspired by the works of Magdalena Abakanowicz, we invite you to explore the raw power of textiles as a means of infusing emotion into art. WeDo Festival embraces the theme "Speak Fiberiously", delving into the vibrant world of fibers—both in art and nature—as a medium for bold, physical expression.
This year’s edition creates a dynamic space where participants are free to express themselves and immerse themselves in the diverse world of contemporary Polish culture. Join us for workshops, concerts, and documentaries, and let’s celebrate strength, creativity, and cross-cultural dialogue together!
