    Heute ist nichts passiert 

    How is it that an exhibition which initially chose visual storytelling as its sole framework has ended up being titled, of all things, ‘Nothing Happened Today’?

    nisten 

    Nesting is a quiet, precise act that lies somewhere between instinct and material. Fragile structures emerge from saliva, fibres and time. The exhibition explores these structures. In printmaking works, the act of nest-building and the nest-builders themselves are interpreted, reproduced and transformed. Lines, layers and structures allude to processes of gathering, shaping and compacting.

    Transforming Climate-Social Futures 

    How do young people envision their future? The answers to this question vary greatly: while many young climate activists emphasise the urgency of the climate crisis and fight for change, other young people feel largely unaffected by this debate. Their perspectives on the future often go unnoticed, even though we are all affected by the consequences of climate change.
