Nachbarschaft Verlasse - Neighborhood Gone, Raskolnikoff Gallery, Dresedn Germany 2009
Painted photographic installation and painted fabric wall hanging.
Snapshot sized photographs of houses are whited out leaving behind only a sparse landscape. The snapshots are placed to create a false unified horizon on a grey timeline mural. Photographs are fixed to the walls with photograph corners, the sort you would find in a old photo album. The notion of the stability and the family home as well as the manifestation of the American dream is called into question in this work. What stays and what fades? Who chooses this and why?
