We are looking for:

We offer you:

  • The experience of creating a work of art together with your tandem partner (the storyteller) and the artistic community of the project.

  • Space for creative exchange, interdisciplinarity, participation and teamwork.

  • The opportunity to get to know people from different cultures, age groups, professions and religions.

  • Active reflection on migration issues with a focus on social change.

  • Assumption of all costs incurred in consultation with ETKultur.

  • A period of about 3 months to develop the work (July to September 2024).

Project duration until the exhibition: June to November 2025.
