Building Stories: Biographical Traces – Karl-Marx-Straße (Neukölln)

If the event is fully booked, feel free to join us at the meeting point.
A participatory urban walk exploring Karl-Marx-Straße as a layered urban environment where everyday life, commerce, architecture, and cultural memory intersect.
Through observation, photography, and short reflective exercises, we explore how this major Neukölln street can be read as a shifting field of infrastructures, narratives, and lived experiences. The focus is not on a guided tour, but on collective perception and spatial interpretation. We will slow down movement along the street and pay attention to visible and invisible urban traces — façades, transitions, rhythms, and interruptions in the urban fabric.
