Narrarives and livable futures: artistic collaborations on the topic of sustainabilty

Final exhibitions of Arts of Change 2025

Arts of Change is a coaching programme for music and art students. For six years, it has been a platform for bringing together various disciplines from arts and science with the goal of findingcreative ways to explore the topic of sustainability.

Following the theme of scenarios for a liveable future, participants worked on specific projects insmall groups. Over a period of nine months, we took care of shared spaces, spent time together and created meaningful art projects. The structure of the programme gives participating artists the motivation to find common topics, fields of interest and media.

This exhibition represents the result of joint research, experimentation and communication efforts of 23 participants in five working groups, with contributions by alumni and scientists with contributions from alumni and researchers from various institutions.

Participating artists: Peter Bitte (Department of Photography), Carolina Caballero, Neha Chandel, Laura Ettel, Sofia Gutierrez Escobar (students in the Department of Transformation Studies (Art x Science)), Frederike Gordillo (student in the Department of TransArts), Klara Hofinger (Klara Leesch) (student in the Drawing and Printmaking Department), Katia Koohestani, Alexandra Konstantinova, Radostina Kostadinova (students in the KKP Department), Alexandra Kraler, Marieluisa Lenglachner, Selma Mühlbauer (students in the Department of Design Investigations), Angela Neubauer (student in the Department of Design Investigations), Радост, Sarah Rogner, Alina Rehsteiner, David Ristic (student in the Department of Art & Science), Mehrta Shirzadian (student in the Department of Art & Science), Tobias Takats (student in the Department of Design and Narrative Media), Tamara Topalović, Jiaxi Yang, Parsa Zandi
