“A large table with a diameter of 15 meters. A table where people can meet other people. I dream of a common get-together without obligations, but with the possibility of encounters.”

Held:innenhood

In collaboration with Julia Tielke and Maria Umbach

Stadtteilzentrum KroKus, Hannover, 2018

residency/installation/video/performance

Kronsberg becomes Held:innenhood, in which all the disappeared, forgotten or yet undiscovered heroines are at home. Most of them are everyday heroines. In a flashy outfit, Kronia wanders through the district and gets into conversation with different women who live there. In short, comic-like videos, Kronia’s adventures on the Kronsberg are presented in an exhibition at the end of the residence. The resulting videos are brightly colored windows through which we look behind the everyday life of the city and discover special women and their superpowers in amazement.

Overlying. Outlying. Practise lying. We have made a sensational discovery that will knock your socks off. The missing piece of the puzzle has been found. We invite you to the lie counter and turn water into wine. Speculative, digital, sporty.

AUSUFERN:lügen

Archiv für Schönheit und Verlust

In collaboration with Anne Brammen, Hilkje Kempka, Maria Umbach

Uferstudios/Parkaue Berlin, 2016 — 2017

residency/installation/performance

A place where stories of loss are collected, a place where farewells are celebrated, a place where you come out more beautiful than you went in.

The flea market as an allegory of farewells, provides the framework for a space that is laboratory and beauty studio in one. Here, losses are anonymously recorded, categorized and archived, hands washed and nails painted. A fragile floating map of farewell is created.

A year later, the archive is opened. In collaboration with the neighborhood of the Uferstudios Berlin, a polyphonic sound collage develops that bundles the collected losses of the previous year into a net-like listening station.

Dirty Hero Tunnel

(what are we doing after the orgy)

In collaboration with Julien Francis Bisesi, Anne Brammen, Hilkje Kempka, Rabea Schubert, Maria Umbach

Kampnagel, Hamburg, 2016

installation/performance

Okay. Okay. Okay. I got it. I’m supposed to go in there now. I’m supposed to take off my damn shoes and someone grabs me softly by the shoulder and says: Come.

A theatrical installation that demands physical engagement from the visitors and promises a unique experience.
