2013,
Photoalbum, collage, mixed media on cardboard,
34 x 21 x 6 cm,
Art Award of the town of Krumbach,
Collection Mittelschwäbisches Heimatmuseum Krumbach,
This work is based on the statement:
“Home, once lost, is always somewhere else.” EKH
The focus is on the search for a place of identification and belonging. I describe it as a long car ride with no destination. For every apparent arrival makes one painfully aware that home is not where one has been looking for it.
The starting point consists of historical photographs and my own, taken primarily from a moving car. The images have been edited and given a digital “patina.” As a result, present and remembered visual states, as well as documentary and fictional layers, overlap.
