Description	"The Calm Before the Storm" is a group exhibition by students of the Department of Fine Arts. It marks the reopening of NEST, an exhibition space initiated by the Department of Fine Arts within the Toni area. The idiom "the calm before the storm" refers to a period of tense waiting, a posture of wariness, the possibly deceptive retreat before an event that lies in the future. This interval sometimes makes the present seem strangely tenacious. It also remains unclear whether future events are to be looked forward to with anticipation or fear, or even whether they will occur at all. Under this title, the Open Call exhibition for the reopening of the exhibition space NEST brings together works by students of the Department of Fine Art (BA and MA). The works shown by Yumna Al-Arashi, Line Chevalley, Mathieu Dafflon, Till Kadler, Lyenne Perkmann, Jason Rohr, Carla Schleiffer and Luca Süss were created between 2020 and 2021 and explore the aforementioned spectrum of associations with different approaches in terms of media, material and content.
