An artistically inclusive art project with the Kulturpark Reutlingen Nord

Reutlingen is known above all for its textile history. Original Reutlingen fabrics are therefore the central theme of this social work of art. Each pillow is provided with a word or text fragment that comes from stories, books and tales about Reutlingen and together form a poetic image of the city.

Ute Diez is a scholarship holder of the Kulturpark Reutlingen Nord, a facility of Habila GmbH, which provides people with disabilities in Baden-Württemberg with individual assistance planning and assistance for participation and self-determination. The city of Reutlingen, elementary schools, the city library, the art museum, Reutlingen University and a local sewing club are also involved in the project.

The project ends with a big pillow fight here in the Kunstverein Reutlingen and the distribution of all pillows to the city and those involved in the project on the cultural stage on the Echazterassen. In this way, an identity-forming work of art that connects people is created in a communal and inclusive manner. A poetic history of the city and its inhabitants is created.
