Marchas de Elefantes, 1996 – Köln⠀
Wall Painting, Darya von Berner⠀

Art Special Hansa⠀
Köln, 1996⠀


Darya von Berner showed her monumental mural Marcha de Elefantes, as part of Art Special Hansa (Cologne).⠀

Curated by: Uta M. Reindl and Georg Dietzler⠀


The project Marcha de Elefantes, is a metaphor of walking: the walk of all the wild animals and people which have lost their habitat and homes, uprooted and forced to leave their place of origin.⠀

The work began as a series of large-scale murals, but later the wall-based work was complemented by sculptures, videos and also performances.⠀
