Identity!? Program
BA Major Design Semester
2022 Winter This is a project about Josef. Josef was my grandfather. He told me stories throughout his life. These stories are an insight into another world. There are just two generations that divide us and yet his life was so different from mine, from ours today. I chose to tell stories, that tell something everyone in that time could have experienced. But my grandpas personal view let us easier dive in, let us feel emotionally connected. The stories represent facts that made up the identity of a whole generation.

Identity!?
Identity!? The concept of identity is complex. Individuals, social minorities or majorities, but also larger organizations such as states claim the legitimacy of ‹their› valid identity. All over the world we can observe how the term is instrumentalized to enforce political interests of exclusion or homogenization.
