Un:Visible Barriers: When Art Makes Hidden Obstacles Visible

The exhibition Un:Visible Barriers invites you to an intense art experience at the Degginger in Regensburg from November 13 to 15, 2026. At its core are the experiences of people with disabilities and chronic illnesses, as well as the question of how barriers in healthcare can be recognized and dismantled.

Art Between Research, Everyday Life, and Social Dialogue

The exhibition combines installation, photography, drawing, text, and sound into an interactive presentation. Visible and invisible obstacles in medical practices, clinics, and digital healthcare are not only explained but made sensually experienceable through changes in perspective. The contemplation of the works leads from individual life stories to structural and communicative questions.

An Exhibition for Reflection and Co-Creation

Interactive stations make different symptoms and obstacles comprehensible. Visitors encounter photographs, drawings, and texts from those affected and have space to formulate their own ideas and demands for solutions. An idea board transforms the exhibition into an open place for cultural education and social exchange.

Change of Perspective as an Aesthetic Experience

Guided tours of the project Change of Perspective by Phönix e.V. expand the exhibition by adding a physically experienceable dimension. With a wheelchair, an aging simulation suit, or a simulated sensory impairment, one can explore the urban space from unfamiliar perspectives. The atmosphere of the exhibition thus connects visual impressions with movement, sound, language, and personal reflection.

Art Historical and Scientific Context

Un:Visible Barriers represents a contemporary, participative art practice where aesthetic experience and societal research intertwine. The project from the University of Regensburg was awarded as one of ten concepts in the 2026 university competition on the topic of the Future of Medicine and received funding of 10,000 euros. The curation focuses on inclusion, accessibility, and the significance of experiential knowledge.

Conclusion: A Visit that Changes Perspectives

The exhibition welcomes its audience with image, sound, text, interactive stations, and personal perspectives. It opens a sensitive access to questions of participation and shows how art can make social reality visible. Anyone wishing to connect cultural education, contemporary installation, and an engaged discourse on inclusion will experience an exhibition with lasting impact at the Degginger.
