Mnemoscape: Landscape as Collective Memory ,
2021
Abschlussjahr: 2021
The project ‘Mnemoscape: Landscape as Collective Memory’ enquires about Middle-European practice of remembrance regarding the mass-murder, genocide and Holocaust of the NS-terror and makes a statement about the role of landscapes in the process of collective memory. What role can a landscape and its experience have in a future representation of the NS-terror? How can we re-engage with the past through this experience and its representation?
The project investigates the relation and conceptual construction of ‘human body’ and ‘landscape’ specifically in remembering the Holocaust as an incomprehensible bio-political terror on the human body.
‘Extermination through work’ meant eroding bodies by shaping landscapes. In that sense, these landscapes are not only spatial property of a present body anymore, but can also be seen as property of absent bodies, promoting a body-concept which goes beyond the idea of a figure and making these landscapes accessible through projection and empathy.
The theoretical analysis of remembrance as a cultural, political, artistic and spatial practice is the background on which the performative impact of remembering as an individual, bodily experience is explored. Site-specific Inter-Ventions in the region of Melk activate the landscape and its ecological conditions as collective memory and as ‘property of absent bodies’.
