Foucault coined Heterotopia as parallel social worlds which display a different network of social order - such as prisons. In this collection, Heterotopia refers to the Outsider Art, produced outside the mainstream, by authors who are pushed to the fringes of society and exposed to extreme mental strains. These texts are illuminated by images - outsider art - taken from the collection at the German Architecture Museum.
