Appeal to the Youth of All Nations

Commissioned work for the Ruhrtriennale 2018

A social intervention in the form of a text-based sculpture on the grounds of the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum. Freely accessible at all times, it displays a universal appeal to the youth of all nations in three languages: in German and English, as these are the most widely spoken languages in Europe—and in Romani, as the language representing a large minority and symbolizing one of the earliest migrant groups in Europe.
