    Our definition of SUBTLE VIOLENCE

    • What mechanisms of subtle violence exist in educational systems today that we fail to recognize as such? 
    • And how does this form of violence manifest itself through objects?

    EDUCATION THROUGH TIME

    • Hunter Gatherer (- 10.000 BCE)
    • Rise of Agriculture (10.000 BCE onwards)
    • Pre-Industrial Societies (3500 BCE – 1750CE)
    • Industrialisation (1750 – 1900)
    •  Modern Era (1900 – today)
    • Play was separated from learning the moment social hierarchies formed and states and religions required obedient followers – later capitalism and industrialisation standardised that system.

    making our sofa construction still feel connected to the park bench itself

    We covered one of the benches in Stadtpark with paper and attached some markers so that people could tag and interact with the bench/ the cover as they liked

    Through this process we got some interesting insight on what people communicate when they get the opportunity to say what they want on a surface in a public space. Some people wrote political slogans, their snapchats, a sentence in their native language to mention some.

    Not only people leave traces on park benches but also animals. That is why we also included some species of birds that live in the park.
