Learn 3. Belki sessizlik saygının tek yoludur? , performance. 31/5 2014. Sandleitenhof, Soho in Ottakring 2014, Vienna.
Shouts: Belki sessizlik saygının tek yoludur? Možda je ćutanje jedini naćin za respekt? Vielleicht ist das Schweigen die einzige Möglichkeit, zu respektieren? (In Turkish, Serbian Croatian and German: "Is silence the only possible form of respect?").
Signs: 我在家受欢迎吗?(Mandarin Chinese: "Am I welcome home?").
"Weisst du wieviele Kulturen, es in Sandleiten gibt? Weisst du wieviele Laender hier zu Hause sind? Moechtest du sie kennenlernen? Moechtest du mehr ueber ihre Feiertage wissen? Hasst du schon einmal ueberlegt, dich mit den Leuten hier in unserem Graetzelkaffee zu treffen?"
(Do you know how many cultures there are in Sandleiten? Do you know how many countries are at home here? Would you like to get to know them? Ready to find out more about their holidays? Have you ever thought about meeting up with the people here in our Graetzelkaffee?)
Voice: Ingrid Gugganig. Lyrics by Ingrid Gugganig based on two questions by Sonja Kothe.

Embrace was a tetralogy realized in close collaboration with Hansel Sato, composed of Knowing , Know , Understanding , and Learning , a project that brought together people from the multiethnic Sandleitenhof residential complex in Vienna with people from various districts of multicultural Lima. Begun remotely in December 2013, it culminated in Vienna between May 17 and 31. It integrated mail art, public space interventions, installations, exchanges, and performance.
Abrazar was part of the XIII SOHO in Ottakring Festival, held in May 2014 in the Sandleiten neighborhood, district 16 of the city of Vienna, Austria, curated by Ula Schneider and Hansel Sato.
