16 sounds of Dortmund / 2017
Daniel Djamo leads us into a fictional vision of the not so far away future of less than ten years. Basis for the exhibition are 16 stories, which were written by young people in the course of a workshop. Framework for the story itself was given by the artist: The existing political problems came to a head so that Europe and its market have collapsed and that country as well as city-frontiers cannot be trespassed without methods of high monitoring. This vision should be deepened by finding answers to why Europe fell apart and what consequences this development has on one’s life. Through this, the artist developed an ‘archeological-archival installation’ (as he describes it himself), which represents the stories written by the participants. (Tanita Groß, curator)
