KUNST
Die meisten meiner Arbeiten sind performative Handlungen. Einfache Dinge, die sofort stattfinden können. Oft werden die Handlungen und Situationen nur durch kurze Texte dokumentiert. Einfache Handlungen, alltägliche oder beiläufige Gesten. Leichte Verschiebungen. Spontane Sofortmaßnahmen, die in den normalen Lauf eingreifen. Eine bedeutungslose Berührung oder eine handfeste Verwicklung. Ein harmloses Wort oder eine Provokation. Es ist zu tun, was zu tun ist.
Die entstandenen analogen und digitalen Teilwerke werden in der Augmented Reality zusammengeführt, virtuelle Anteile mischen sich mit der realen Wirklichkeit. Das heißt, einzelne Arbeiten werden mittels der Augmented Reality durch Objekte, Überlagerungen oder Effekte erweitert und wieder in die reale Welt integriert. So können zum Beispiel direkt durch den Handybildschirm (mobiles AR) Elemente angezeigt werden, die sich auf die reale Umgebung legen. Dies lässt im Zusammenspiel mit Konzepten der Performativität eine Form des digitalen Storytellings entstehen.
Dabei spielen sowohl in der realen Welt als auch in der digitalen prozessorientierte Handlungen genauso eine wichtige Rolle wie Kooperation und Vernetzung. Die eigene künstlerische Praxis nehme ich dabei als Ausgangspunkt, wie ich selbst vermittelnd tätig bin (künstlerischen Vermittlung).
SORRY, BUT I´M STILL WORKING!

In downtown Ahlen, near Kirchplatz, I'm standing in front of a transparent wall made of linoleum and begin to write on it with a chalk maker from what I've seen, read and hear in the last 24 hours.Again and again üI rethink and change what is spoken, what is read and what is heard. When I'm finished, I cut up the wall that I have written on. I then arrange the individual parts into a new picture and leave.
I WAS MOWING THE LAWN!

I‘m standing in a glass box and writing on its panels with a chalk marker - writing what I’ve seen, read and heard in the last 24 hours. Again and again I rethink and change what is spoken, what is read and what is heard. When I‘m finished, I remove what is written and walk away.

This is what I did:
I took over the Instagram account from deux- piece.Every evening from July 5th to August 1st 2020 I posted a video with seemingly meaning- less actions. The video record shows a moment during the day. At times I recorded the videos myself and other times not.

I draw small horizontal lines on the wall of the room. A line for every day I’ve lived so far. The small lines eventually blend into one big line.

I stand in an empty exhibition room and repeatedly and alternately utter the words i WANT MONEY; I NEED MONEY. After a while, the pronunciation of the spoken words becomes divorced from all meaning. I utter them until I can’t anymore.

I dig a hole, put my head in it and fill the hole back in with sand. Subsequently I compress the sand with my hands and wait.

I wade through a fountain where ducks swim. I put my things down at the other end of the pool on the ledge. I return to the middle and take turns putting my hands and feet in my mouth and see how far they fit. During this process I disappear below the surface again and again. When I’m done, I go out to the edge of the pool, take my things and go away.

I bend my body parts, try to twist and knot them, and then roll around on the ground like a ball. I keep on trying. I interrupt the process to clasp my fingers and toes together and roll around on the ground again.

I walk from the street to the playground and take pictures of myself, again and again, making faces. I take off my shoes, take off my jacket and scarf and start bouncing up and down on the trampoline, which is located on the playground, all the while continuing making faces and tak- ing selfies, even with my feet. I begin to say photo ... phoootttooo ... phooootttttttooooooo. I stop jumping, get dressed again without interrupting the process of taking pictures, and walk away.

You should be me. Move with the wheelchair to a public space. Stuff as many cigarettes as pos- sible into your mouth and ask people whether they have a lighter. When you’re finished, you need to ask someone to push you back to where you came from.
