“Vessel & Voyager” is the new exhibition project of the JUNGE AKADEMIE, the international and interdisciplinary fellowship programme of the Akademie der Künste. In the exhibition, 25 artists present new works that they developed during their residencies. They explore scope for artistic creation and action in times of diverse and escalating crises and deal with the themes of loss and memory, body and healing, protection and community. On display are photographs, prints, collages, video works, spatial and sound installations, sculptures, drawings and assemblages.
