About this event

Hozan Dino, a prominent Kurdish singer, songwriter, and musician known for his contributions to Kurdish music and culture. Born in the city of Ardahan in Kurdish-Turkey, his work draws heavily on the socio-political situation of Kurds and their struggle for cultural and political recognition. Focused on themes of oppression, exile, and the longing for freedom and self-determination, his powerful poetry combined with traditional Kurdish musical elements and modern influences underscores his music as both cultural expression and activism. Over the years, he has grown into a symbol of resistance and hope for many Kurds, appreciated both within the community and beyond, and remains an influential figure in contemporary Kurdish art.
