Performance
Platform Munich, Germany
'The situation is precarious, in every respect' and 'This is a new time, but my head is still stuck in the old one' are sentences from this performative situation analysis on art. My bronze head 'Römer' (Roman) becomes a prop, I wear a mask with the head's motif. I reenact the posture of famous classical sculptures in roman museums, while a recorded text from the tape accompanies my association-opening game: an overall show of brittle elegance that unfolds its entire foreboding potential with Covid.
