The exhibition has been formed as an installation-labyrinth that consists of more than 200 elements, covering a floor space of 1,500 m2. The artist presents her vision of what and how from the existing cultural heritage would appear in objects and environments made by people themselves.
Imagine the world after a global disaster in which you are one of the few survivors. Almost all the technology is gone, only a fraction of the knowledge and tools are left, but the fear of nature's power has returned. Yet, the man has decided to hope and wants to express this newfound hope in some physical form – but what might that look like?
