Background

“Gestern war erst der Anfang.” from the series “Nischen” is a work by Tine Melzer from 2023. It is made of enamelled metal and is mounted on Kornhausstrasse, by the stairs to Oberweg in Bern. The series is made of 90 enamelled panels with texts, placed across Bern's public space. The panels follow seven walks that are connected with the Biodiversity Year. Several lines mention threatened plants, animals and fungi that live in Bern, and address the people who walk past.
