Licht als Instrument der Modulation und Manipulation
Januar 15, 2017
In dieser gemeinsamen Arbeit modelliert eine Choreographie der An- und Abwesenheit von Licht eine aktive Körperlichkeit im Raum. Das Licht wird zum Instrument einer punktuellen Sichtbarkeit, die konstruiert und dekonstruiert, zeigt und verbirgt. Nähe und Distanz zum Wahrgenommenen gilt es als Betrachter stets aufs Neue auszuhandeln und das Gefühl von Fremdheit und Vertrautheit zu hinterfragen.
FRUTAS AFRODISÍACAS
November 30, 2016
Forget about the old colonial explorer routes! The Frutas Afrodisíacas sail from the exoticised spheres of South America right into the heart of the German metropolis. Here in West-Berlin’s fag movement of the 1980s, they search for commonalities, contradictions, and themselves. How did the AIDS crisis unite a whole community?

In the style of a silent movie, a physical and spatial language will become a collective form of housing and questions will be raised about other forms of cohabitation. Should we get used to the current living conditions? When does habitation end? What will habits without inhabitance become?
Co –
September 26, 2014
Co- ist ein Laboratorium für menschliche Interaktion. Wir versuchen zu sehen, was von außen nicht sichtbar ist. Wir untersuchen die unsichtbaren Verbindungslinien der Menschen in Bezug auf Timing, Koinzidenz, Aktion, Reaktion und Wirkungspotential. Es gibt nicht nur eine Perspektive.
