What is sacred to people? What are their rights, what is their duty? And where is this revealed? Searching for traces of the conditions and possibilities of agreement, for signs and locations of human life together, the artist and architect Azra Akšamija opens up protective spaces of different kinds. The exhibition turns the spotlight on social, ethical and ecological sustainability. The exhibited works, which involve the public in the Sanctuary, range from identity-creating clothing both in the present and the future to a protective tent for refugees that can be individualised, and the communal creating and processing of recycled textiles.

With texts by Azra Akšamija, Zdenka Badovinac, Katrin Bucher Trantow, Negar Hakim, Andreja Hribernik, Alois Kölbl, Johannes Rauchenberger, Christoph Szalay, Alexandra Trost, Elsbeth Wallnöfer.
