Tayo Awosusi-Onutor is an Afro-Sintezza based in Berlin who is the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors. The transgenerational trauma in her family and life is just one of the topics discussed in the last episode of the Podcast “Invisible Wound” of Sharon Ryba-Kahn, which is part of the project “Hakara – facing the transgenerational trauma” by AMCHA Germany. Tayo highlights the lack of knowledge about the Roma and Sinti community in Germany, even though many have been living on this country for centuries. She will speak with us about her work as an activist, author, educator, and singer. Her many activities all contribute to fighting against the ongoing racial and disciminatory injustices against the Roma and Sinti community – in other words making an invisible wound visible.

Trauma in Art & Practice
Collection of artworks, images and exhibitions photos related to transsomatic trauma
Can we see ourselves reflected in surfaces, structures and textures? Dorothee Krings (Berlin) has been, and continues to be, a photographer, amongst many other things. In recent years, she has organised private ‘trauma salons’, where participants could share personal perspectives on their own histories, their wounds and how they cope with them. For her, macro photography is an imaging technique that visually reveals what seems impossible: the deeper layers of time. Her images speak of the fragility of our world and, by extension, of our own vulnerability.
