By Way of Water
02.08.2024 – 13.10.2024
Bärenzwinger Berlin


The group-exhibition By Way of Water,  took inspiration from confluences – the points where different bodies of water meet – to dissolve rigid boundaries and categorizations in the ways we relate to each other and to our (urban) surroundings. The exhibition united six artistic positions across various media to explore how space can be inscribed, read, and (re-)interpreted through the lens of hydro-cartographic and hydro-feminist approaches.
