At the MdbK, sighted, visually impaired and blind pupils from the Vladimir Filatov School and the Protestant School Centre created animal sculptures on six workshop dates. They worked with sculptures from the MdbK collection and developed animals that do not yet exist. The aim was to create works of art that are not just something to look at, but can also be felt and heard. These can now be experienced as a presentation with a guidance system on the Studio Terrace.
"Animals that no one has yet heard" is part of the ZusammenKUNST project run by Diakonie Sachsen. Its aim is to invite people with different backgrounds to create art together. At nine locations in Saxony, artworks are being created in public spaces that address the issue of living together as equals.
Participating students: Amelie Fischer, Constantin Behmann, Lene, Lia Moslim, Lio Hornischer, Malia, Mathilda Jahne, Sabrina Brisk Ali, Theresa Spemann, Uliana Nosenko, Zazou Grau
Project management: Kathleen Roth & Franziska Weiske, Diakonie Sachsen
Sound: Jonah Roth, University of Music and Theatre ‘Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy’ Leipzig
The project at the MdbK is accompanied by Dirk Sorge, visual artist and anti-discrimination consultant
This measure is co-financed by tax funds on the basis of the budget approved by the members of the Saxon state parliament and supported by Aktion Mensch.
