Gradually, you are starting to seem a bit more human.\u2019 \u2013 Anonymous \u2013<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_blurb admin_label=”Informationstext” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n From 11 to 14 September 2025, an unusual location at Cologne’s wholesale market will become the stage for what has remained unsaid until now. BOTIN \u2013 a mixed-abled production by Un-Label, directed by Philine Velhagen \u2013 invites people to submit their never-sent messages anonymously.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/un-label.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Audioflyer-BOTIN-Un-Label.mp3″ button_text=”Audio flyer (German)” admin_label=”Button Audioflyer” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_text admin_label=”\u00dcber BOTIN” module_id=”raum” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb admin_label=”Text \u00fcber BOTIN” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Whether it’s an angry rant to an ex, an apology to a girlfriend (three years too late), a message to a deceased father, or a desperate letter about looking for a flat. Messages that were too angry, too vulnerable, too late, or simply never finished \u2013 BOTIN gives these messages their first and last appearance. And not at the front door of the ex-husband, but on the grounds of Cologne’s wholesale market, between market stalls, lorries and rubbish bins. This is where the temporary archive for unsent messages is created.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n An experienced team of archivists and artistic researchers receives each message, sorts it, interprets it and transforms it. In this way, what was previously unheard is made audible. Visitors become proxy recipients of numerous different messages \u2013 perhaps even a message that is closer to them than they thought.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Before visitors are allowed to enter the heart of the archive, the sorting centre, their own part of the work begins. Everyday life must be put aside \u2013 everything that prevents us from really listening. In a performative act, hastily typed messages, voice memos, personal stories, or the last post are dismantled together. Only this personal archiving process opens the way to the sorting centre \u2013 and creates space for what is really important: the unheard.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_nextend_smart_slider_3 slider=”49″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_nextend_smart_slider_3][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/un-label.eu\/botin\/” button_text=”To the BOTIN Website” admin_label=”LInk” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/un-label.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Audioflyer-BOTIN-Un-Label.mp3″ button_text=”Audio flyer (German)” admin_label=”Button Audioflyer” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_text admin_label=”DGS Video” module_id=”dgs” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”] <\/p>\n You are currently viewing a placeholder content from Default<\/strong>.
