Der Bau

In the organizer's words:

Over 100 years ago, Franz Kafka published his story "The Burrow", which depicts the desperate and paranoid efforts of an animal to protect its self-created habitat from threats.
This fragment, published posthumously by Max Brod in 1928, functions as a metaphor for the physical and psychological impoverishment of modern times.
Kafka's work addresses the constant fear of danger, which leads to phobias, and illuminates the inner insecurity of the animal, whose steps and certainties begin to falter.
The question arises as to whether it is possible to protect the retreat without attracting the attention of potential enemies. Sounds are transformed into threatening fantasies and reinforce the omnipresent paranoia.
The text thus reflects the tension between the need for security and the urge for control, a central theme of modern existence.
