“I still believe that the principle is
that the law has to follow politics
and not politics the law."

Herbert Kickl - FPÖ 21.01.2019

This absurd statement serves as the starting point for a spatial installation that embodies its inherent contradiction. At the center is a door—designed to defy convention and expectation. The entrance becomes both a literal and symbolic threshold, reflecting the distorted logic of populism, nationalism, and bigotry.

Inside, the room unfolds under the theme of Europe. A video plays recordings of people sharing their perceptions of the European Union, highlighting diverse opinions, misconceptions, and hopes. The combination of space, imagery, and narrative invites reflection on the fragile balance between law, politics, and ideology in shaping our collective future.
