From more than 1,100 applications worldwide, the six mentors of the Forecast Edition 2024/25 have each invited three nominees to present their artistic projects to a broad audience at the Forecast Forum at the beginning of August. Over three days, boundaries between disciplines and genres will be challenged, questioned and transcended through performances and innovative artistic strategies in an exchange between mentors and the 18 nominees. At the end of the forum, the mentors will each select a project that they will accompany for 8 months until spring 2025. These six projects will be presented at the Forecast Festival in March 2025 at Radialsystem.

This year’s mentor team consists of the composer and performer Ute Wassermann (Germany), the documentary filmmaker Tomer Heymann (Israel), the visual artist Theo Eshetu (UK), the choreographer Alice Ripoll (Brazil), the photographer Lieko Shiga (Japan) and the designer Fiona Raby (UK).
