"MANUFACTURA" by Studio Zweisiedlerkrebs | Cologne, Germany
Studio Zweisiedlerkrebs, Founded by Elena Wiener and Josefine Maier, Studio Zweisiedlerkrebs is a creative studio for audiovisual and interactive storytelling. Whether it's film, interactive applications, or exhibitions – their work focuses not on the how, but on the why. Through their projects, they aim to strengthen democracy and diversity, amplify queer and feminist perspectives, and make historical contexts tangible.
MANUFACTURA is an endless machine that exposes the systemic imbalance of patriarchal societies – told through the lens of Gretchen’s tragedy in Goethe’s Faust. Faust, the giving hand, and Gretchen, the receiving hand, constantly navigate the boundaries between responsibility, overwhelm, and self-sacrifice.
