Part of "From Inside to Way Out"
In 2007 Sabeen Mahmud founded "the Second Floor (T2F)" in Karachi, a social experimentation field, political forum, creative laboratory, a ‘third space’ in the sense of cultural theorist Homi K. Bhabha. In 2015 she was assassinated. Mahenaz Mahmud introduces her daughter’s project with the multimedia presentation "Dil Phaink - Throwing Your Heart Into the World". The following discussion “Off the Public, Off the Home” looks into the possibilities of cultural freedom in Karachi today.

Travelling to HAU2 via U Hallesches Tor:
If you are coming from Hallesches Tor underground station, you will have to use an alternative footpath from Wilhelmstraße / Hallesches Ufer junction, which is separated from the carriageway by a construction fence – the actual footpath is currently closed. Please note: the alternative route is also used by cyclists. Pedestrians should keep to the right. We therefore currently recommend that visually impaired or blind visitors come to the HAU with an accompanying person.
Arrival HAU2 via U Möckernbrücke:
When you leave Möckernbrücke underground station, please stay on the footpath on the canal side until you reach Hallesches Ufer / Großbeerenstraße junction – the opposite side is currently closed due to construction work.
