Horror 2 - Photoshop Opening

2016

The galerie Schillerpalais in Neukölln Berlin supposedly had to close down. At it´s place a new photoshop should open. In the internet there is promotion made for the shop-opening, a promotion video, webpage, instagram, facebook and newsletter. At the opening people find barricaded doors and windows. They enter through the side door. Inside a 100m plasticsheet labyrinth is leading the way. The floor is made of tiles finished with silicon. Sometimes the very bright light situation is switched to one tiny bulb in the whole space, then photographic emulsion is spread on the tiles where a guest is standing or walking, then cut out on site and directly taken into the dark room. Because of the big daylight lamps behind the plastic sheeting it is difficult not to loose orientation. At the end of the trail you enter into a cellar, you are asked to wear the gasmask which was given to you at the entrance. A butcher curtain is closing the door to keep the heat. Inside are three heaters, and a glass box is standing in the middle of the small tiled room. Inside the box you find a canvas treated with heat sensitive pigments, clay and hydrochloride acid, so that over time it is changing it´s surface and image.

Material .... plastic sheets, glass, tiles, photoemulsion, gasmasks, wood, metal fence, lamps

Art in the Living-Room

2016

In a living room in the Berliner Straße in Wilmersdorf Berlin it is predicted that art has been done. Not much is obvious. The heater has been changed; the kitchen has been replaced by a different one; pictures are added in the living room which was full of artprints already. At the outside wall of the building there is a subwoofer placed which is playing the sound of the gasheater from the kitchen where a microfon and a bluethooth transmitter is build in. One could think that it is the sound of the neighbours heater. At the outside wall there was standing once another building which has been bombed away. In this environment guests are invited join talks about carneval, plantconsciousness, and the transcendent meaning in art.

The Travelers

2016

In an empty hospital one room is completely beeing besmeard with chalk, until you can smell and feel the dampness in the space. The windows are hung off with cloth, plastic bags and a jalousie made of thin wood sticks. A cigarette has been stubbed out in the ash tray on the windowsill. On the wall on the right is hanging a chapel-like trophy, melted together from chinese plastic asseccories and a plastic chain. In the jalousie of the window a video is projected, showing dancing young refugees celebrating the ramadan in a refugee camp in lesbos, greece. On the floor are persic carpets with a seating cushion. On the wall to the left is a book-shelf with books and magazines about globalisation and human trafficing. In the corner next to the entrance is a tiled corner with a plastic washing bowl, and a dripping water tap.
