These demonstrations arose in response to the expansion of "Gefahrengebiete", which allowed police to conduct body searches and other invasive measures without requiring concrete suspicion. As a form of resistance, protesters carried toilet brushes under their jackets, mimicking concealed weapons. This tactic was meant to confuse law enforcement and draw attention to the broadening of police powers."https://niclasriepshoff.info/hamburg-raumt-aufIn 2025 the giant toilet brush was installed in front of public train station Sternschanze. It is also a street light and an audio walk is available on the artist's web presence. The artists: Niclas Riepshoff and Jakob Walter. grey_is_boring https://streetartcities.com/users/86f38712-d52f-4175-b99d-efd071e00707 https://streetart.media/d/d5828758-882a-4fb7-9377-cf20fcf2df30/1024.jpg 1024 480 480 <iframe src="https://streetartcities.com/markers/913218d8-4cae-4c16-a276-8f3a0b298278/embed" width="480" height="480" style="border:none;border-radius:12px;max-width:100%;" loading="lazy" allow="fullscreen; storage-access" title="Hamburg räumt auf?
