SWITZERLAND

Moving images, sound, and archival materials shape an environment which develops from indoor to outdoor, investigating coexistence as both a social promise and a site of conflict. The project refers to two Swiss television programs, Telearena (1978) and Agora (1984), among the first to bring public debate on homosexuality into the broadcast sphere. By reworking these materials through installation and editing, the artistic team reflects on conditions of visibility, rights to speak, and the always negotiated forms of living together.
