Fragile Foundations: Art, Mental Health, and Housing Precarity
30.4.–13.6.2025
Florian Aschka & Larissa Kopp, Zira Reyesna, Salma Shaka, and Peter Várnai & Sarah Wilhelmy
The exhibition Fragile Foundations: Art, Mental Health, and Housing Precarity is a continuation of the series that has been organized annually since 2020 in relation to Mental Health Awareness Month. This year, the project focuses on the complexities of housing (in)stability with four artistic positions selected via open call. Through various media, the artists bring attention to the privatization of social housing and public spaces, the vulnerability and risks accompanying migrants moving to Vienna, as well as the expanded understanding of the topic beyond physical instability to the existential homelessness caused by displacement, war, and colonial violence. All selected works are reminders of our individual and collective power—a call to action—to take up space and organize against oppression.
