mauer

This performance points at the angst of the „other“ and related practices.

My body was standing in the exhibition space, next to more than a ton of bricks. Two contracted workers builded a circular wall around my motionless body, leaving gaps between the bricks which allow the public to look inside. After three hours, they removed some bricks until I was able to step out. A ruin remained as a sculpture forming part of the exhibition.
