"aufknoten / aufmerken, sich wieder verbinden" is a research project on contemporary witnessing in public space, a performative situation in the neighbourhood of plants. The performer Angelika Waniek, together with Inga Martel, artist and somatic researcher, looks at individual life stories, subjective experiences, plants and their traces. The period being witnessed is that of National Socialism. The witnesses are those against whom the violence of National Socialism was directed, but also trees as supposedly silent witnesses, to whom Waniek and Martel turn. They also grow in the immediate vicinity of the IDEAL art space and the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig. Places to which the artists are connected.
Meeting point: In front of the main entrance to the Academy of Visual Arts Leipzig
