Selected, locked into cars, and sent on a journey against their will: a seemingly countless number of fates began here and ended there. The latter describing places of industrial scale where no meaningful goods were ever produced but humanity was routed.
Ausselektiert, in Waggons gesperrt und auf eine Reise wider Willen geschickt: unzählige Schicksale wie diese begannen hier und endeten dort. “Dort” beschreibt Orte menschlicher Entwurzelung, Standorte von industrieller Produktion ohne brauchbare Güter.
