Photo exhibition “TRANSIT”
at Ars Electronica Festival 2016 “RADICAL ATOMS”
Date: September 8th-12th, 2016, 10 AM-7:30 PM
Venue: POSTCITY, Conference Hall

“A young blonde said to me, “Welcome.” Last September, transiting to the airport, at Vienna’s Westbahnhof rail terminus I was suddenly caught up in the crowd transiting to Europe from the east. Side by side, we are waiting for the next train. I could not see any difference between the scene of lots of families with kids chattering, drinking, playing and eating food prepared by volunteers and my own holiday with my family. We share lives to be tossed by the huge force exceeding personal abilities. We are tiny pieces floating around in the world. A young blonde made a mistake? ”
 
    
“About 60,000 flowers are being raised for the 2016 Ars Electronica Festival, where they’ll add lots of color to the big conference hall in POSTCITY. Each flower symbolizes a person who was able to spend a night in safety here since September 2015, when this decommissioned logistics facility was placed in service as a transit camp for refugees.”
(Martin Hieslmair, Ars Electronica.)
