The Installation.
"The Livingroom" (or two identical walk-in rooms, wall to wall, mirrored) furnished like middle-class living rooms in Nazi-Germany. There exists different options, depending on the exhibition-space. The installation is pluridimensional: odor, soundtrack from a "Volksempfänger", tactile photoalbum... The artworks, fabrics, wallpapers, sculptures, videos, carpets etc. are handmade and created by the artist for this purpuse. Wallpapers, dorrs and windows are trompe d'oeuil and will be set up in situ. There i also a one-room version, seperated in the middle.
The photo series "In search of lost memory" can be shown as part of the installation or separately.
