Human Rights as an Artistic Experience in St. Michaelis
The exhibition together.free and equal opens at Michaeliskirche Braunschweig, presenting human rights not as an abstract concept, but as an experience that can be physically felt. The new traveling exhibition of the EKD Human Rights Initiative employs a playful, interactive, and hopeful approach to communication. In the church space, this concept unfolds a unique exhibition atmosphere characterized by concentration, resonance, and quiet contemplation of the works.
A Space for Freedom, Equality, and Solidarity
The presentation addresses key questions of our time: How can spaces be designed where people can live, reside, believe, and learn together freely and equally? The exhibition highlights four themes from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Freedom of Religion, Welfare with a Focus on Housing, Right to Education, and Basic Duties. This creates an artistic experience that combines aesthetic experience with cultural education.
Interactive Elements with a Clear Message
A particularly striking feature is the staged entry via a nearly three-meter-high wave breaker element. It not only marks the entrance to the exhibition, but also articulates a stance in the space: Human rights require protection, attention, and social responsibility. The exhibition utilizes air cushion elements and invites visitors to engage actively with the content rather than merely observing.
Church Space, Reflection, and Cultural Education
St. Michaelis, with its historical atmosphere, provides an impressive setting for this presentation. The combination of a sacred site, contemporary communication, and human rights discourse creates an exhibition with strong relevance. For visitors, this results in a compelling contemplation of the works, emphasizing participation, dialogue, and reflection instead of aesthetic distance.
