Head of Department: Oliver Kartak

Every narrative produces a gap. Narratives simplify to function, and every simplification conceals something. What is concealed is not random: it serves interests, protects comfort, lets systems continue without scrutiny. The gap between a narrative and its reality is where power lives. This power goes unnoticed; it operates because nobody is asked to examine it. Gaps persist because they are actively maintained: institutionally, interpersonally, internally. The effort to keep them invisible is often proportional to what they contain and what is at stake. This exhibition by students of the Department of Design and Narrative Media presents the same structure: a story on one side, a reality on the other, and a space between them. You are invited to experience these spaces.
