Hello, I am translating a review of an exhibition and "eine Geschichte im Zeichen von..." has me a little stumped.
Context:
Auf den Spuren von Vergänglichkeit, auf den Spuren des ökologischen, des kapitalistischen, imperialistischen Fußabdrucks sind sich diese vier Künstlerinnen begegnet und nähern sich aus verschiedenen Richtungen ihren Themen, eine Geschichte im Zeichen von Krieg, Ungewissheit, Klimakatastrophe und Migrationen.
What I've come up with so far is:
These four female artists encounter traces of transience, the traces of the ecological, capitalist, imperialist footprint, approaching their themes from different directions during a time with a background of war, uncertainty, climate catastrophe and migration.
Thank you for any suggestions.
