Project description<\/h3>\n

In this project I was working together with artist who mainly were involved directly in the political changes of 89, and because of that, felt a personal impact on their lives. At this time I was having a safe life as a West-German ?observer? who, after the wall came down, had only experienced first hand changes of the society and politics through observation and news.
\nWith this project I wanted to question my own political position and my relations to this incident. As well I was interested in raise and fall of systems of order and ideology and individual approaches to it.<\/p>\n

As curator Vlad Morariu states about the project Beneath the remains:
\n… “Its purpose is to recuperate and concatenate upon a Zeitgeist of political mistrust, uneasiness and active disobedience which stems out from the popular culture milieus of the late 80?s and which still survives in the back of our consciences.?<\/p>\n

During a research trip to Romania, the country most of the participating artists were rooted in, I was collecting photo material and impressions concerning the topic of the ?remains?[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Objects, symbols, words, phrases, pass through a continuous process of interpretation.
\nTheir validation is a reflection depending on time, context, discourse and the perceivers viewpoint. transformation of the little things is a personal quest, about my experiences being within a society facing a processes of political deconstructions and reconstruction. Words become pictures, symbols transform their meanings, pictures become symbols.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”640″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” qode_css_animation=””][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]I collected a series of interviews with former citizens of the German Democratic Republic about their experiences of 1989 and after.
\nI found Dirk, who as a young boy, had to participate as a FDJ member (GDR youth organization). He told me about his way to riot against his participation by spray painting a peace dove on the back of his uniform. I asked him to re-enact getting dressed in his old uniform
\n– twenty years after –
