For the centennial celebration ‘100 Years of the Folklore Museum in the Monatsschlössl’, students from the Mozarteum explored the contents and objects of the museum. They brought their contemporary interpretations in the form of sculptures into the open air.

‘Masks, traditional dress, cult objects…’ invited us to engage with our own experiences of folk culture, everyday myths, identities, and traditions. They inspired personal interpretations and critical questions, and served as both conceptual and formal starting points for artistic interventions in Hellbrunn Park. The trail invited visitors to associatively search for connections between past and present. Legends, customs, identities, traditions… what do they have to do with us today?

For their installations, the students developed an interactive virtual level using augmented reality (AR) in the tradition2go_extended project.

A cooperation between Salzburg Museum and Mozarteum University Salzburg, Department of Fine Arts and Design, Sculpture Programme. With the kind support of Hellbrunn Palace.
