An international phenomenon with a strong local flavour.
Scratched signs on windows from public transport services are turned into prints.
Existentmale addresses the phenomenon of the use of public transport windows as communicative displays of scratched tags.
The plan is to represent seven European and seven non-European metropolises from 14 countries.
After the release of the windowpanes by the respective local public transport companies, they are used in their unchanged state as original etching plates.
From cities where scratching is an integral part of the cityscape, three respective windows are included in the project.
Cities in which scratching was almost or completely absent at the time of acquisition are included in the project with one window each.
Existentmale will thus comprise between 40 and 60 windows.
