Marleen Kiesel

Artistic Director | Co-Founder

(she/her) (de, en, fr)

Marleen is a community musician and Artistic Director of Paper Lantern Collective based in Chemnitz. Her work is in the room — in the weekly choir sessions, the community relationships, the long-term programmes that take root slowly and last. She has been building this kind of practice across Dortmund and Chemnitz for years. She believes everyone is an artist. More importantly, she knows how to make people believe it about themselves.
