Mia Sanchez, Andreas Kalbermatter and Dominic Michel curated and selected a collection of videos, archival material, models, and photographic works. From 2015 to 2019, they initiated and organized Riverside, an exhibition space located in Worblaufen on the outskirts of Bern. Since then, they have curated exhibitions and events at various venues. Together, they have assembled an arrangement that explores the representation of public space, creating a mapping to contemplate the reconstruction of a potential public sphere.
