Vernisage: Modern Day Dating - an interactive exhibition by Milena Mott

In the organizer's words:

Modern Day Dating - an interactive exhibition
by Milena Mott
On May 3, during Gallery Weekend, newcomer artist Milena Mott presents her immersive exhibition Modern Day Dating, which runs until October 2025, at Desi Diner in the former, light-flooded canteen of the Neukölln tax office. More than a classic exhibition, this event combines art, music and interaction to create a unique experience. Each painting is provided with a QR code that offers access to specially composed music, a poem or a small interactive task. The evening will be accompanied by Shabnam Syed's curated Southeast Asian fusion snacks to add flavor to the experience. Guests are invited to share their thoughts and bring their perspectives to the space. Love is not only contemplated here, but experienced in all its facets. Bring your headphones!

The vision
The exhibition invites visitors to an immersive exploration of love and connection in the digital age. Each painting will be tagged with an OR code, allowing guests to access a unique musical composition, poem or interactive task that deepens their engagement with the artwork. This multi-sensory approach transforms the exhibition into a 360-degree experience where visual art, sound and participation merge together and inspire personal reflection.

The artist
Milena Mott - art, music and the exploration of love in modern times Milena Mott is a visual artist and musician based in Berlin. She holds a Bachelor of Arts and wrote her thesis on synesthesia - a topic that grew out of her deep curiosity for the connection between music and color. Her artistic work revolves around the themes of love and the search for connection in today's society, with a particular focus on online dating

The project
For the past two years, Milena Mott has been developing Modern Day Dating, a project that combines portraiture and musical composition to explore love in the digital age. Her latest works continue this exploration and deal with intimacy, desire and the multi-layered dynamics of modern relationships. For Mott, love is both a subject of exploration and the highest form of art - both deeply individual and universal. Through painting and music, she captures fleeting thoughts and shared experiences, revealing the complexity of our shared search for connection.
