Similar Rubble
Similar Rubble is a video-art installation that blends hand-drawn animation, machine vision, and archival materials to explore spectral resemblances between devastated urban spaces in Berlin and beyond. Anchored in Berlin—a city marked by loops of destruction and reconstruction, shifting borders, and fragile promises of refuge—the piece traces the ways that ruins are seen, remembered, and made to resemble. Berlin is (not) (only) Berlin.
