Background

“Bitte nicht aufgeben.” from the series “Nischen” is a work by Tine Melzer from 2023. It is made of enamelled metal and is mounted on Beundenfeldstrasse, number 1 in Bern. Melzer, who lives in Zurich, works across writing, visual art and research, with language as her central subject. Several lines mention threatened plants, animals and fungi that live in Bern, and address the people who walk past. The production received help from Luk Wartenweiler at the Werkstatt Tscharnergut and from David Zürcher.
