VERSCHATELT (BOXED)

Spatial Installation, 2018

For my final project at the master class for sculpture at the Ortweinschule Graz, I received a scholarship from the cultural initiative “Kürbis Wies”, which took place in spring 2018 in the form of a 6-week artist in residence. In the “Atelier im Schwimmbad” in Wies, I implemented a spatial installation with cardboard. The two-dimensional material was transformed into a spatial three-dimensionality. Cardboard, an ordinary material, which confirms its usability daily, but is hardly consciously perceived. The viewer is supposed to enter an unfamiliar, surreal environment, which reflects the nesting of the world of thought. The material, familiar from everyday life, is to embody subconscious and chaotic thought constructs in this context.

Finally, a music video was created in the room installation with the Graz band “Bird Of The Year”.
In August 2019, Nora Köhler (from Bird of the Year) and I were invited to the Künstlerhaus for the 6th edition of the “Convo Club” to discuss spatial perception and visualisation of music.
