Based on fundamental questions about one’s own identity and location in urban space, we will work in the open studio on a collective model of a fictitious city, which will be created on the basis of the needs of all participants. How can diverse social and societal points of view be united and, above all, how can the overall image of a city created in this way be influenced by individual artistic gestures? On the one hand, it is important to make use of known and accustomed structures, but on the other hand to throw them overboard if necessary.
We draw, construct, cut, glue and paint. In this way, over the next three museum Sundays, a collective and processual model of a city will emerge as we do not (yet) know it.
