Series: wie du mir

Happiness in life for everyone! It fails. The categorical imperative stops at the other, the unknown, the unfamiliar. Foreign customs, religion, other languages, even skin colours form the elements for barricades of fear, equally around Fortress Europe. Strategies of breaking them down seem increasingly helpless. Xenophobic thinking and acting becomes a calamity for all those who leave their homelands, setting out not only with their needs but also their ideas and dreams in search of a better future.

Those stereotypes that become fixed in our minds as a concomitant of xenophobia are a central aspect of ”Counter Images for Transcultural Thinking and Acting“.

This is the point where a field of activity opens up for art: Alternative images are possible and we can work on developing the present situation under different auspices. Such counter-concepts empower us to hone our view and revise the conceptions stored in our own minds. ”tit for tat“ works on counter images for thinking and acting beyond national, cultural and religious boundaries.
