Detour use - Design processes are processes of appropriation. They offer the opportunity to become aware of one's own power to act and shape the world in a self-willed way. Processes in which self-determination over one's own life is developed.
Exhibition Art Prize Rostock 2023

Social Object
21.10 – 3.12.2023
Schaudepot Kunsthalle Rostock
Embroidery is a contemplative, age- and gender-inclusive and, above all, a directly accessible technique. We sit together and develop our textile image as a temporary community. Each person can add a part. The individual parts are created individually. Rhythmically, piece by piece, they create a larger overall picture as a reflection of our collaboration. While embroidering, the participants surrender to the community process and temporarily connect. The embroidered fabric becomes a social object.

This text work addresses the location and context of their existence. In her concentration she becomes lyrical. Reflected in gold, the art shines outwards and its content is reflected in the reflections of its recipients. Always present, the little-discussed fear and its influence on our perceptions, themes and non-discussions. The white letter objects emerge from the wall, approach the viewer and carry their gold on their backs.They radiate their value to the wall, and fortunate is the one who discovers it.
Susurri
Objekte
21.10 – 3.12.2023
Schaudepot Kunsthalle Rostock
In their figurative form, the "Susurri" (Latin for "the Whisperers") directly interact with the collection of the Kunsthalle Rostock. They are formally a nod to classical shapes, but this is subverted by the choice of material. High-temperature (HT) pipes from hardware stores, available in various lengths, thicknesses, and fittings, provide a system that can be infinitely shaped with delight. This playful expression marries lightness with sensitive perception, as they indeed whisper. The movement of air within the pipes generates an echo that can be heard in stillness. Listening is a sense, and attentive listening is meaningful.

After the performative smashing with a hammer, I repaired the buoys using an old technique. I sewed them with sheep's wool, just as valuable porcelain dishes in Iceland used to be put together for further use, sewn and boiled in milk without cream to seal up the cracks and holes. I am therefore offering it again for further use on the sea. In this idiocy, I wonder whether such a kind of return is possible and whether we learn from such repetitions.
woven plastics

Washed-up, washed-out pieces of plastic on the beach of the Greenland Sea. I exclusively wove the broken and torn pieces, which were then sewn on the back with Icelandic sheep's wool to form a unified conglomerate unity. These found objects are visibly destroyed, having lost their usefulness and now serving as a disturbance in nature. Sensing this disruption, I reassemble the parts anew. Woven plastics visualize the opportunity for something new – after breaking away from their predetermined purpose.

Too much work, too far away, too long absent, too broken, too dirty, too different, too big, too small, too unsuitable, too creepy, too worn, too dark, too monotonous, too much experienced, too little experienced, too colorful, too boring, too silly, too modern, too old, too politically incorrect, too peculiar..
There are many reasons that make it difficult to find a suitable second person.
This installation has now grown to more than 150 gloves since 2019. As an installation, it is impressive due to its size and diversity. When the individual parts are removed they are objectified.
