Brück von hinten

Ort: Straße des Friedens 113, Brück

The property in Strasse des Friedens 113 is the only gap between the closed row of houses along the street in Brück. It has no fence and you can walk through until the sand path behind. I am interested in this gap and the potential of this open In-Between-Space. I am interested in the passage through this piece of land that offers a perspective on the backside of Brück and its long gardens that otherwise normally are not to be seen from the front street. My installation contains a transparent (typical German) window curtain on the front of the garden. Through a gap in the middle. of the curtain visitors can walk inside. Along an alley of bed sheets hanging on a rope they can walk to the end of the garden. On the sheets are printed images of 36 gardens from the neighbourhood. This way the visitors get to the backside, to the private life of Brück. On the sand trail they can walk back into the town, along the gardens behind the houses

Statement: Since many years i am specialized in artistic works incorporating the public space. My main concern is to unite different artistic positions and to present them in a specific, urban, social and infrastructural situation. One of the most important aspects is to temporarily regain a specific urban environment as a stage, as a place for experiments and as a reflection of the creative, social and urban studies. Themes of public relevance are taken up and the public itself is dealt with as a theme. Special emphasis lies on the integrative and communicative character of these projects.
