BRUNHILDA Project. Alignment to Mother Earth

Starting this project means to start decolonizing my inner and outer patriachalic structure of seperation and competition. It means to strengthen my alignment to Mother Earth. MAPPING is my tool.

This video was made in context of the project "SATELLITES | LABORATORY FOR SOUND AND SOUL", which aims to question conventional expectations of language as a form of communication through art. Its a collaboration with Karem Ibrahim.

New research: Color and Language as phenomenons of the "In-Between".

it´s not an utopia - it´s not a distopia- it is a vision, a research - out of introspection - an opening for a new perception  
of the inner and outer world as one

Der Text gibt einen Überblick über den bisherigen "CROSSING-PROZESS" von Island bis Südafrika.

Bericht über die erste CROSSING Station im August 2018: Island

Die Reiseberichte spiegeln meinen eigenen CROSSING-Prozess und ergänzen die folgenden Interviewauswertungen und anderen Texte des Forschungsprojekts auf einer mehr persönlichen Ebene.

Ich erläutere einige Begriffe für die Auseinandersetzung mit dem Phänomen der Angst im Rahmen des CROSSING Projekts und als Grundlage für die Auswertung der Interviews. 

Art is the only realm in which the human being is able to develop (not only express) humanity. But art is not (only) this phenomenon in the museum.

The "Skins at eye level" are showing the diversity of faces in variety forms of portraying. Surrounded by this images we hear cutouts of the CROSSING interviews: artists are talking about their experience of the phenomenon of fear.

New documentray pictures about "Crossing" Cape Town.

Pictures Karem Ibrahim

I am proud to have had the opportunity to hold this interesting interviews with this amazing artists.

In the exhibition "Crossing" I showed new works, created in Cape Town as results of my research interviews and the impressions of the recent situation in South Africa. After the Biennale in Cairo I started an exchange  with the artist Karem Ibrahim about the issue of borders. The exhibition at Greatmore Studios is the beginning of our cooperation. 

Crossing Cape Town takes place in different ways: With my wax-skins, my interviews and in collaboration with Karem Ibrahim in a special political and performative way.

I am fallen in love with this wonderful city...

With the session "Future enabling methods in times of Digital Reality" I presented my artistic research-project CROSSING at The 8th International Conference on Sustainability & Responsibility, 16th of November 2018 in Cologne, Germany. Here is the resume.

"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye." Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Installation Arteles, Haukijärvi/Finland

I have appreciated the interview with this wonderful artist: Based in Berlin, investigating the social role of the artist through embedded drawing practice in public spaces. 

Last days in Finland. Glad to found a new way of "Crossing the threshold" in working with the forest.

"I’ve also been thinking a lot about a line from Rousseau where he says that if you want to be useful, it is essential to be read in the provinces. I wonder what would happen to my work if I took this seriously." C. T. 

How can we achieve a connection with the soul and spirit of the forest?

Just listen for the invitation to be.
