Kiez-Lab Berlin
as part of Schools of Tomorrow at HKW 2017
Although young people in particular are experts on the migration society in everyday school life, they rarely get a chance to speak. Since December 2016, pupils at the Staatliche Europa-Schulen Berlin have been looking for new images, ways of representation and narratives that do justice to their perspectives.
Using artistic means, they are exploring topics such as migration and flight, as well as questions about community and identity. Together with artists who deal with these topics in their work and critical migration researchers, they explore the role of distance in transnational family structures, invent contemporary Berlin bands or reconstruct film classics with a new ending. In March, all project participants will come together at a self-determined congress organized by the students at HKW to discuss their findings.
