About the project

Eva Schlegel is one of Austria’s most internationally renowned artists. Her work focuses on the concept of space, immateriality and the relationship between image and language.

In collaboration with 2MVD, Eva Schlegel is developing AR installations for the European Capital of Culture 2024 Salzkammergut, thereby expanding her exploration of the relationship between perception and spatial potentials, material and immaterial, object and human to include a virtual medium. “Memories from the Future” reflects on the locations and their history, with the location taking on the role of a generator and the visitors themselves becoming an active part of the event.

At different locations in the Salzkammergut, the animated sculptures by Eva Schlegel and 2MVD will be visible outside and inside by means of a QR code.

  1. Toplitzsee: This work is about the many secrets that the Toplitzsee holds and reveals by means of virtual narratives. Be it the enigmatic NS treasure or the fabulous animal world. (QR code on the lakeshore, permanently accessible)
  2. Sudhaus: Stories about salt are retold and wrap themselves around the visitors
  3. Bräuwiese – Traunsee: Digital eyes observe and follow the explorers (QR code on the lakeshore, permanently accessible)
  4. Spitzvilla: Digital eyes observe and follow the explorers (QR code on the lakeshore, permanently accessible)
  5. Sky Waterwalk – Ebensee landing site: Into the Deep (from 02/09/24, QR code on the lakeshore, permanently accessible)
