Exhibition Overview

DEADEND is an exhibition that presents a difficult reality that has turned violence into the language of daily life. This language threatens the existence of human society. DEADEND is the first in a series of changing exhibitions planned by the Museum on the Seam that will deal with socio-political issues that engage us as individuals and as a society that aspires to live side by side in thoughtfulness and mutual respect. The exhibition raises tough questions in the face of a variety of expressions of violence and calls on the visitor to examine his own path and not to stand idly by, passively watching what is happening.
