HIER – 5,175 QUADRATMETER OKKUPATION

2008 / DIPLOMA / mapazine 5,175 m², 360 x 144cm (folded out), 22 x 34 cm (closed)

»HIER« is a mixture of map and magazine, a so called »mapazine« with a special folding
technique that allows you to flip throught the medium in any direction. Up and down,
forth and back.

The first issue of »HIER« dedicates its 5,175 square meters to the idea of occupying,
reconquering and reactivating urban public space.
It is all about heimat- and micro-universes that automatically emerge whenever people
start to interact with their urban everyday environment. They occupy the city, leave their
traces and by that – accidentally or not – influence and change the cityscape.

This diploma was done in collaboration with >>Verena Reiber. Take a look at our >> exhibition.
