For his first solo exhibition in Austria, Oscar Tuazon presents a series of new works that relate to the social space and the public.

The artist works with natural and industrial materials such as wood, stone, metal and concrete. Based on architectural approaches and do-it-yourself strategies, he realizes structures that move between functional buildings and sculpture. Many of Tuazon's projects are inspired by alternative and utopian architectures of the 1960s and 1970s and early eco-efficient and self-sufficient living models.

In addition to new works by Tuazon, the exhibition presents his large-scale project Water School, which has been running since 2016 and examines the dynamics and power games that govern access to land, water and infrastructure.

As part of the exhibition, a transdisciplinary symposium on sustainable building and the careful use of resources is planned in collaboration with students, architects, climate researchers and water management experts.
