Monument of Oblivion: River of Lethe
Neda Saeedi:

For the 2025/26 programme year, artist Neda Saeedi has been selected by a jury to create a site-specific work. Neda Saeedi’s sound installation, created specifically for the Klosterruine, explores how historical sites are remembered. “Who is remembered, who is excluded, and how do we deal with violent histories or missing monuments? Are we dealing with the past in a way that allows us to shape the future?
