The work that Markus Hiesleitner is shown in the Wild Spots exhibition borrows from tumbleweed, which is a classic motif in westerns: The wind blows the spherical shapes through the area and thus promotes the spread of the plant. The Mobile Wilderness project refers to the idea of spreading wilderness in urban areas.

The objects occupy places and thus also prevent direct human access; they have the potential to give nature some space to grow wild, like in front of the Orpheum Graz.

In the workshop, Markus Hiesleitner will show how the tumbleweed can be formed from plants that have previously been harvested along the Mur and in other places in and around Graz.

Everyone is welcome to participate. Registration is requested but not obligatory: rotor@mur.at, 0316/688306

In co-operation with: YAP - Young Active People / Youth Centre of the City of Graz
