The “Room for Birth and the Senses” project was realised as an external part of the “geburtskultur. vom gebären und geboren warden” (“birth culture. of giving birth and being born”) anniversary exhibition of the Hittisau Women’s Museum in 2020. It consists of a walk-in clay body that makes it possible to directly experience the influence of space and environment on birth and physical regeneration processes. The art project represents a plea for a creative and contemporary approach to the topics of room and birth.

The founders of the “Integration Vorarlberg. Für ein gutes Leben mit Behinderung” (“Integration Vorarlberg. For a good life with disabilities”) association have gathered complex know-how about inclusive lifestyles over the past 30 years. They know all about stumbling blocks, injuries, challenges and moments of happiness, and they’re experts on inclusive lifestyles.
