Project description
»Soft Traces« is this year’s exhibition concept developed by the Bauhaus Inhouse Team of the Chair of Typography and Type Design at the Bauhaus University Weimar. The exhibition focuses on the exploration of traces as fleeting, process-oriented states that arise through movement, touch, and time and are in constant flux. Traces are not understood as fixed forms, but as transitions between visibility and disappearance. This space can be visited at Marienstraße 14, where the works of 26 students from two courses in the Typography Department of Visual Communication are on display: »Commons In( )Design?« by Jun. Prof. Katharina Köhler, M.A. and »Type in Transition« by Marcel Saidov, M.A., and Samara Keller, M.A.
