The invited artists work with recycled and found materials. The interventions are easily associated to street-art but at the same time want to stay way from how street-art is mainly conceived nowadays, where big murals have a dominant role. Circular aims to help to revert the process which has taken street-art far from human scale and somehow take it back there. Besides, by promoting the use of found materials for the interventions, we launch the debate about a second life for objects, responsible consumption and leveraging of resources, focusing on sustainability, recycling and the role of people in our cities.

The exhibition framed the 4th version of Mediocre as an exhibition and sets a focus on the average life in Berlin. A mix of canvases and mural painting has been presented in an old boathouse on the river Spree. The very different motives stand for the subjective view of Axel Void, who choosed the exact images and themes at random. Basis of the paintings have been photographies that blended with the observations of the artist - facts and fiction melting into each other. The result was a complex and ambiguous view of a city in its state of being extraordinarily mediocre. Show less
