On 20 January 2024, the Kreuzberg project space SCOTTY will open the exhibition “Urban Habitat: artistic field research on living spaces on Oranienstraße”, a seminar-accompanying exhibition of the Berlin University of the Arts in the Art and Media course under the direction of Lilli Kuschel.

Oranienstraße and its neighborhood in Berlin Kreuzberg is the starting point for an artistic exploration of urban living spaces. In this group exhibition, 13 up-and-coming artists and filmmakers research, explore and observe the surroundings of a street. Audio moths fly from kitchen to kitchen, collaged facades are placarded, artificial suns rise and set, urban stables are mucked out and the history of a former wild concentration camp in Wienerstrasse is made visible. The works will be shown in the windows as well as in the exhibition area of SCOTTY.
„There are streets, paths, motorways, alleys, boulevards and promenades. And there are life paths, intersections and dead ends
