During the coming holidays of Sukkot, the Sala-manca group open their "Deller Sukkah" replica, created in collaboration with Ktura Manor and Nir Yahalom, in the backyard of their "temporary home" in Toronto. In their projects around Sukkot the Sala-Manca Group explores complex themes through performance, art, and scholarship. Their work focuses on acquiring and moving temporary, fragile structures, building unauthorized replicas from scratch, and transporting homes—all as part of creating an "architecture" that reflects on historical narratives, both collective and individual. They examine what it means to be attached to a home that is itself unattached, and how this reflects broader questions of displacement and exile.
7:00 Informal Opening, refreshments will be served at the Sukkah
