Wall to Table is a bold artistic transformation of one of history’s most divisive symbols. By turning two original fragments of the Berlin Wall into a table for connection and dialogue, artist Meike Ziegler creates a powerful space for conversation and reflection. This installation invites us all to confront the barriers in our lives and seek creative ways to overcome them—together. As Berlin marks the 35th anniversary of the Wall’s fall, Wall to Table will serve as a lasting monument to human connection and the enduring quest for unity.
