1999, photomontage 200 x 400 cm
The montage was installed in a container put on the Gauss Square in Vienna. A few years ago the square was newly designed and the people living in this area seemed to be discontent. The people passing by were asked about their opinion on the new square. The answers are documented in the montage by coloured elements as black and white and grey.

WUK Verein zur Schaffung offener Kultur- und Werkstättenhäuser Wien
Two months in advance of the 20th anniversary of WUK (member of the Eurpean Network of Independent Cultural Centres on Former Industrial Sites) Susanne Kompast inquired 300 people about their opinion of the public institution WUK. 100 people were prepared to participate. Each opinion was transformed into a square shaped sheet of wire grating. The sheets were connected with each other using different ways according to the opinion of the questioned person: The wooden dice refer to the people not having a defined opinion.
