...return to the program overview | venues Description: Mobile CityThe exhibition sketches the super-mobile habitat of the imaginary “Mobile City” and its inhabitants. It is alleged that the term “Mobile” derives from the Moubilla Indians. According to their tradition on feast-days they put azaleas in their hair to attract butterflies. They followed them and became mobile. In "Mobile City" the name has been chosen for the design. “Description: Mobile City” presents with the help of various media images of mobile habitats: an acoustic journey through the psychological geography, photographically documented sleeping habits and action radiuses in mobile accommodation. We gain new insights into places of interest, flexible thinking patterns, elements of language and manners, and also into the commercial transport of miraculous boxes to the “End of Map Zone”.
