The Only Way Out is an immersive installation located in the heart of Geneva, home to the United Nations and a historic centre of humanitarian action. On the ground, visitors move forward with hesitation. Seen from above, the structure takes the shape of an anti-personnel landmine. Every dead end reveals an explosive threat. Every step brings uncertainty and tension. There is only one way out: a single fully cleared path. For millions of people living in areas contaminated by landmines and explosive remnants of war, this is not an experience. It is everyday life.
Along the way: facts. Explosive ordnance. Personal testimonies. The reality of those living in contaminated areas.
Anti-personnel landmines are designed to go unnoticed. That is what makes them so dangerous. Is it a plastic container or an explosive device?
Explosive ordnance could be all around you, but where? This feeling of uncertainty and apprehension is a daily reality for millions of people.
