More encounters, more life outside, more surprises in the neighborhood - the project by performance artist Marinka Limat in Länggasse and Rossfeld in Bern revolves around these wishes of the residents. The project is the first winning entry in the "Kunstplätze" competition to be realized in the city of Bern. "Escale", French for stopover, is the name of Fribourg artist Marinka Limat's project in District II, where she is creating what she calls an "artistic action space" in May. Here, moments of encounter will be created with and for residents of the district - for example at a joint Moroccan dinner, a music event, an exhibition, a sewing or screen printing workshop or a meeting with the so-called forest people from the Bremgarten forest. For three weeks, these events take place in a specially built mobile pavilion. The pavilion was opened on May 4, 2019 in the turning loop of the 12 bus in Länggasse. On the Saturday of the following week, a colorful musical parade took it to Rossfeld for a week before it was set up again in Länggasse for a third week. The daily program was aimed at different group sizes depending on the activity and could be enjoyed free of charge by anyone from the neighbourhood who was interested. The focus was on shared experiences and contacts.
