SUTGA RUMANTSCHA

Together with the scenography office Groenlandbasel, I developed the small series “Sutga Rumantscha” (Romansh armchair) for the Swiss Youth Hostels – an interactive station to familiarise visitors with Switzerland’s fourth national language. Romansh is spoken by only 0.5% of the Swiss population. Who are these 0.5%? Where does it come from and what does it sound like? The “Sutga” answers these and many other questions about the Romansh language. The armchair offers a comfortable seat to any curious visitor and, through interactive language tests and knowledge of Romansh music and literature, provides an entertaining introduction to the language of the locals.
