Traces of Migration

Graphic Design, Photographic Documentation

The exhibition "Traces of Migration - On the Trail of Contract Labor in Weimar" makes East German migration stories visible. The focus is on everyday stories of former so-called contract workers, who were recruited between the 1960s and 1980s to fill the labor shortage in the GDR economy. This form of labor migration also occurred at the Volkseigener Betrieb Weimar-Werk, where agricultural machinery was manufactured during the GDR era. Between Dec. 15-18, 2022 - open daily from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. - the exhibition will take place at the historic work site, the KET Hall in Weimar.

Moin, hello, selam, مرحباً – I'm Kaya Peters (he/him), a multimedia artist, sound designer, and urbanist based in Berlin.

My work explores the intersections of sound, space, and storytelling, with a focus on memory cultures, postmigrant society, and social movements. Combining critical urbanist perspectives with experimental media techniques, I create immersive experiences that reflect the complexities of identity and collective memory.

I hold master’s degrees in Urbanism (M.Sc.) and Media Art and Design (M.F.A.) from Bauhaus University Weimar. Through my transdisciplinary approach, I aim to spark conversations about belonging, resilience, and transformation in contemporary urban life.
