Collecting and reassembling is an essential principle of Susanne Gabler's artistic approach. This creates sensitive and fine works that subtly convey their sharpness with regard to political and ecological issues. The works, which are mostly conceptual and created in situ, adapt to the spatial situation and immediate surroundings, meaning that they are created anew each time. Susanne Gabler's works can be understood as condensed discourse fragments that are reassembled into objects from existing material and linguistic material. They know how to present their mostly difficult topics in a focused manner and to transcend them through their aesthetic content. At first glance it is simply beautiful art, which can make you shudder and despair at a second glance.

This is once again made possible thanks to the generous support of PROVINZIAL insurance. The aim of the prize is to recognize and promote artists who live in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania or whose biography and work has a connection to the region. The genre should change every year. For 2023, the art prize will be offered for object art for the first time.

I love them... the REPAIRS ON THE HOUSE, which I did in 2021 with the women's association Tribsees e.V. in a participatory and site-specific art campaign. 

[It had become quiet in Tribsees, the houses were falling apart and I decided that Tribsees needed repaired houses and that I really enjoyed repairing them. Until now I only had one technique available for this – I sew. So I sewed a house.
First I stitched up a crack in the wall in the house like a wound in the body. That was my entire sympathy as well as my complete respect for Tribsees, its structures and the people there.
Then I sewed two houses together with the women from the women's association. They crocheted the missing panes, rewoven the missing bricks and met me again and again at the house with coffee and cake until it was repaired. All this with delicate old pink crochet yarn.
Their craftsmanship is valuable and a tradition. Attaching what is valuable to the crumbling houses demonstrates the value of these houses and the city's structure. We connected with each other in a direct tactile sense. I am dealing with Tribsees, the traditions of the Tribseeser women with their city and the past with the future.] 

Und das alles kam zustande durch den wunderbaren Rahmen TRIBSEES ZUKUNFT MACHEN, in dem Ton Matton (Indie Uurbanist) ein Jahr lang Akteur:innen einlud, in Tribsees künstlerisch zu intervenieren.    

Und nun … 2 Jahre später … durfte ich zusammen mit Gitti und Sonja aus dem Frauenverein Tribsees, der Projektleiterin von Tribsees Zukunft Machen Sofie Wagner, Ton Matton des Projektinitiator und Claudia Stauß vom Neulandgewinnen e.V. nach Chemnitz reisen und Tribsees sowie mein Projekt REPARATUREN AM HAUS auf dem Ideenkongress 2023, im Wirkbau Chemnitz als eins von bundesweit 15 wundervollen Projekten vorstellen. Dieses Projekt erklärt auch wie Kunst bewegen, verändern und wirken kann. Eingeladen wurden wir vom Programm TRAFO – Modelle für Kultur im Wandel. TRAFO ist eine Initiative der Kulturstiftung des Bundes. 

Die Kongressbesucherinnen und -besucher konnten in Chemnitz am 27.9. und 28.9. eine Reise buchen. Wer die Ideenreise Tribsees buchte, kam zu uns. Wir bauten einen Tisch auf, es gab selbstgebackenen Eierlikörkuchen aus Tribsees mit angereist und wir sprachen über unser Projekt und unsere Erfahrungen.
