We did it to ourselves – The world is a dangerous place

During my trip to New York a few months ago, I started collecting scraps of newspapers and magazines and drew my interpretation of what I read. The choice of articles came natural: it was mainly articles that distorted a topic completely, that presented human beings as objects or that simply made me shiver in awkwardness.

Structurally recyclable, basically disposable: getting ready for the vernissage

I have been trying to fill in this space for the last ten minutes but really, the only thing I can come up with right now is that I am literally exhausted and in serious need of sleep.
Setting up the exhibition, with all that is connected to it, has been tiring and stressful and I [...]

An off-topic Geneva series

It’s been a crazy week. Preparing for an exhibition is never easy and preparing for it and at the same time managing its “marketing” aspects (flyers, posters and what not) is incredibly stressful. I am saying nothing new here I am sure.
And whenever you are involved in such a preparation, so many things go wrong [...]

“Structurally recyclable, basically disposable” en route and exhibition soon in Berlin

Some changes ahead and an exhibition announcement

I have decided I will make some major changes to the website, especially the portfolio sections. Chances are I will change a couple of times more in the future.
On the other hand, you (especially the readers currently in Berlin) are all invited to a group exhibition, “Works -aktuelle europäische Positionen” where will be featured some [...]

Budget cuts and double standards

“Unfair and unbelievable!” are the words I have used the most today, along with the display of a sorry face. I know times are tough for everyone, I know times have always been tough in the arts an culture scene in general, but sometimes I still manage to be unpleasantly surprised.
The Weinmeisterhaus, the culture centre [...]
