BECAUSE OF A WISH

by Monique Fessl and Marta Navaridas

This art installation at Neue Galerie Graz highlights the transformative potential of wishes and proposes an 'own room’ for the visitors to engage with their own desires and hopes.

The artists wrote and drew over 80 wishes made by the audience who previously attended their performance at <rotor> in October 2022. At this exhibition opening, they made an invitation to the museum visitors to keep expressing their own wishes on the walls for as long as the exhibition remains open.
