Wall / Plastic Film

Wall / Plastic Film  Wand / Folie  
Bunker Space / Schauraum Wiensowski & Harbord Berlin 2013
Video Installation / Exhibition View

Mute. 9 min 24 sec. Loop

To see is the colour design of a rear wall of a shopping centre in Offenbach including corrections and whitewashings of graffiti.
Video: For a long time, a crumpled piece of transparent foil lies unmoving in front of the wall. Then, barely noticeable, a corner starts moving in the wind. After a while the piece slips further. Finally, it is blown off the frame.
Photographs / Montages: Individual circle elements of the wall’s design in Offenbach including all damages and repair traces are precisely photographed, printed out and pasted as a wall frize into the exhibition space.

Transformer House Wall / Two Doors

Transformatoren-Haus-Wand_Moskau-2010_front

Despite their prohibition, graffiti advance further towards Moscow’s city centre. As a kind of non-conformist expression, graffiti are not tolerated. Instead of taking costly restoring measures, the public authorities have the house walls partially repainted in different colour shades of oil- and dispersion paint. Structured house walls come into being through these large multi-coloured sections.
Some house walls are systematically photographed, section-by-section, and then digitally pieced together to large formats. The texture of the wall and the paint structures are meticulously captured. A strong illusion of spatial depth is achieved by combining numerous individual perspectives. The wall sections with their repainted traces will be brought to other (exhibition-)spaces as large-sized photographic works/objects.

Notes

2009_ZettelWand_Supermarkt_Moskau_Diakoniekriche-Frankfurt-2011_891x501

Slips of paper are pasted to the rear walls of Muscovite supermarkets or at bus stations. The public authorities remove them again. New slips of paper will be applied: These concern private offers and wanted ads for rooms, apartments, massages, computer assistance and instant loans. These notes built a thick layer of paper, which is fraying on the edges.
For the photo installation a section of the wall has step-by-step been recorded and digitally assembled. The composition of numerous individual perspectives translates the spatiality of the frayed paper to the illusion of the montage. These unofficial ads arrive as printout in another space.
