Who, who?
Important stuff for my work is gelatin.
The invisible substrate for the photosensitive chemistry is an essential intermediary substance for the idea of conserving moments in analogue photography. As substitute for human tissue in ballistics gelatin is a suspenseful material of documentation.
"Who, who?" shows fragments of different portraits and profile images, packed in gelatin-capsules. It is impossible to form THE image of a person, but you can immerse in single wrapped facets or even incorporate pieces.
"both bodies" works on the point, that we have to find a solution for the physical AND the social body, if a person dies.
One part of this installation is the mass of a cast block of gelatin.
Size of the block is a current format to examine the imprints of handy weapons. Secondly the volume correlates to the cremated remains of a human being. Losing water over weeks, the form develops.
The counterpart is the highly fragile skeleton of ashes of a gas mantle. Although it is burnt tissue it is strong enough to give light a shape.
The ice-urn "fare-well" brings H2O back to the cremated body. The impermanence of the shape is expedited by being touched. Physical pain through coldness offers a possibility to experience the own vividness in a corporal way.
"Gedächtnis" : Light draws the image of a flimsy vessel of gelatin in different violets and greens in a back projection.
The object being illuminated with a white picture prompts questions about aura, original, absence, body, image, projection and reference.
"Gedächnis Eins" is the print of the photo of one projection. Something is there.
Thank you for taking a look at my work.
