A wooden bench as meeting point and public stage
Rattle and gossip, what is heard and said can lead to intolerance or tolerance, to misunderstandings or understanding, to distance or closeness.
Conversations held on the bench were overlaid with the multilingual snippets of conversation, the sounds of nature and the city of the sound installation. It should stimulate reflection on diversity and prejudice, on spatial exclusion and social openness.
The seating platform then moved to a Munich allotment garden and turned into a meeting point in the green city idyll.
