The House of Weaving Songs - Journeys Festival 2024

Dhaqan Collective invites you to enter The House of Weaving Songs.

The House of Weaving Songs is a domed steel structure based on an Aqal, a Somali nomadic home found in the arid landscapes of Somalia.

Embark on a sensory journey as 360-degree audio surrounds you, transporting you to the heart of Somali nomadic life through the musicality of Somali women's weaving songs. Wander through nomadic tapestries adorned with tales of tradition and resilience, that ignite when touched, each thread weaving a story of heritage and belonging.
