RESONATING REVOLUTION

In the organizer's words:

Multimedia installation by Theresa Münnich

The exhibition project RESONATING REVOLUTION is dedicated to the 2014 Revolution of Dignity in Ukraine. Based on the idea that revolutions do not spread linearly but through resonance, the video installation examines the echo that this revolution has left behind. The revolution is not understood as a completed event, but as a process that reverberates to the present day.

The exhibition takes a fragmentary approach to collective memory by means of interviews, sounds, images and essayistic text excerpts. These are woven into a multi-layered web and together create a walk-in resonance space. At the same time, RESONATING REVOLUTION addresses forms of collective and solidary practice and raises questions about utopia and community in the European context.
