Eberswalde laughs at dementia: humorous exhibition by Peter Gaymann

A fascinating art project has just won the journey in Eberswalde! The hiking exhibition "Demensch" has been officially opened and inspires visitors in the Paul-Wunderlich-Haus by October 15th. On Tuesday, September 3, the time had finally come and the first curious guests flocked in!

The works of Peter Gaymann, a talented cartoonist and caricaturist, show the everyday life of people with dementia in a humorous way. But this exhibition is more than just art - it invites visitors to smile carefree on a serious topic and to approach life with dementia with ease. An important concern of the event: create a relaxed atmosphere!

humor as a bridge for understanding

The drawings by Gaymann are an eye -catcher and trigger an roller coaster of the emotions! They impressively make visible what challenges people with dementia and their relatives have to master. Often it is the small, everyday situations that are recorded in the comics and they hit the heart. Because as the artist himself emphasizes: "Laughter is expressly allowed!"

So his art shows that it doesn't always have to be about doing everything right. If the glasses are hidden in the fridge instead of in the dishwasher, we should laugh together instead of looking for mistakes. A smile can work miracles and connects people!
