Janina Steger x Forum for Humour - COMING SOON

HUMORBOX by Forum Humor und komische Kunst e.V.

Laughter is universal, an expression of joy, a moment of liberation and sometimes an unexpected enigma. It connects people, crosses borders and reminds us that doubts and insecurities are often fleeting.

The humour box brings this idea to life. Sounds of laughter fill the room. Laughing faces - of people, animals and fantastic creatures - adorn the walls, their expressions full of allusions and stories.

The laughter in the room can be infectious, cause uncertainty or give a feeling of lightness. The unexpected encounter with this phenomenon subtly challenges us to question our own perception.

In the end, one impression remains: laughter releases tensions, connects people and creates a moment in which everything seems lighter.
