How do we sense?
How do we measure?
How do we identify?
How do we organize?
How do we relate to ourselves?
How do we assess a situation and how do we act?
How about the aesthetic dimension at the functionality of place?
How about the impact of peripheral and underlying information?
What about the area between the assignable and the indeterminable?
How do we handle diffuse conditions?
How to navigate noise?
Is this dust or dark energy?
Is it noise or did we catch a signal?
Are we gathering data or glimpses while we are developing models and strategies to process and
shape a housing for reality?
Are we able to comprehend more by gathering more and more information?
Are we able to process the information?
Is it pure construction?
How to identify all this human projections?
What about our longing for stability?
Is it this curiosity to dig and detect that is essential and fullfilling?
It is essential to be aware of limitations. To ask ourselves how we are handling borders. To be aware
of our mechanisms to structure our surroundings. To be aware of our urgent need to control. To be
aware that we are casting a net of boundaries upon the world, on which we fix our findings. This
knowledge becomes the net´s architecture itself. A system of established theories and interpretations
which needs to be touched, cut and reformed for it doesn´t become a cage.
“Being aware of” is not a constant state of mind, it is unstable. It is a beautiful challenge as it enables
us to transgress the boundaries, to develop and change things. And it is a disquieting anticipation as
it is biting the hand that feeds us.
Can experimental artistic practice function as some kind of laboratory to explore the raw material of
perception, consciousness and subconsciousness?
I believe in the need for these associative experiments. In the need to engage in a long-term research
in the sensory and mental relationship of man and place. In the need for installations as test
arrangements, pseudo-scientific constellations, constellations that produce and question borders of
one´s own perception, constellations that take the observer on a journey through the subtle layers of
one´s own production of reality.
Let us trigger disquietude.
Let us travel in between sharpness and blurring.
Let us explore what isn´t easy to identify.
Let us sharpen our senses.
Let us give ourselfs over to this border motion, take different pathways, sensuous pathways and keep
up the useless focus not blinded by efficiency and functionality.
