DEMOKRATIE – ZELLE

20.10. – 26.10.2025 | MQ Raum D

A project by KUNSTZELLE at WUK curated by Pablo Chiergehin and Christine Baumann

It is hard to define the taste of water, the smell of the air, the sensation of standing on both feet. At the same way it is hard to perceive and describe what democracy is when born inside this system. An imprecise form of being heard and taking part, but less imprecise of many others. A system of rights, protections and duties which should give voice to every human being. An implicit institution that reclaim its value when in danger.

KUNSTZELLE asked artists and cultural operators to represent/describe/question Democracy using just words.
