From 16:00 to 17:00, Boddinstr. Berlin, Germany
I was originally going to meet Eliza in Switzerland but I couldn’t make it, some weeks after she wrote me and told me that she was in Berlin for a poetry exhibition/reading that she was organizing. I imagined at first that she was Swiss but it turns out that she isn’t, but she doesn’t want to focus on her origins since she does not feel linked to any country in particular but considers herself a citizen of the world.

Eliza is a Iyengar yoga teacher and a poet who not only writes poetry but also creates installations with living poetry. She believes that poetry is something that you live as much as you write it. She spends her time in three homes in India, Switzerland and Berlin. She is also a Tibetan Buddhist and a photographer who believes in living here on this planet now.
