Marinka Limat initiated the "Taxi Ride" project, which involved unusual encounters in Bern's district II. On August 25, 2018, two people got to know each other during a 20-minute cab ride. The guests were selected on the basis of a survey in which the Fribourg performance artist interviewed over a hundred people in Länggasse and Felsenau. They told her about their experiences, anecdotes and concerns in relation to public space. The project was created as part of the "Kunstplätze" competition and forms the basis for the "Escale" campaign in May 2019: Marinka Limat will work together with guests from the neighborhoods for three weeks in a mobile space, alternating between the Länggassstrasse bus terminus and Rossfeld. The exchange between people from the neighborhood will make their special experiences and knowledge visible: e.g. in the form of a dinner, a story evening, a reading, a workshop or a concert.
