The Hand of a Primate Escaping a Building Where the Elevator Has Stopped [electronic resource].
FHNW HGK 2025
Open access content
The elevator connecting the city’s ground level with the subway station is a crossroads of two worlds that otherwise could never meet. Inside the confined elevator space, elderly people, individuals with disabilities, children in strollers, and foreign tourists with suitcases come together. They look at each other with curiosity, compete, and converse. However, the elevator can always stop in an “emergency.” This potential for an emergency (exceptional state) proves that these two worlds are inevitably “para-.” Yet, it may only be when we acknowledge this potential as part of reality that the cracks between these “para-” worlds begin to form.
