Opening Pale Blue

Initially, the students worked with the artist Asad Raza during a workshop on his commissioned piece *2075*, which transformed the KW’s rear courtyard into a scented garden featuring plants expected to be resilient to the effects of climate change. They then visited forester Hannah Riedel at the Saubucht forest district in the Grunewald and accompanied her and her colleagues in their daily work.

The resulting zine, *Pale Blue*, brings together the students’ work from both encounters and is supplemented by two interviews with Asad Raza and Hannah Riedel.

Participating students: Zocha Bryksy, Ying Chen 陳瑩, Nico Dasenbrock, Ana Maria Draghici, Hande Şevval Emirmahmutoğlu, Loki Forster, Laura Hagemann, Camillo Häusle, Sonya Kurilo, Nine Schröder, Linda Schwanz, Robin Warmbrunn

This project is part of the workshop seminar organised by the Woodworking Workshop at the Berlin University of the Arts and the Examination and Exhibition Organisation Department, Faculty of Fine Arts.
