When I move I move

Installation view When I move I move, painting, acrylic on cotton, 200/145cm, mirror 50/70cm, angles, steel wires, 34. Annual Exhibition Kanton Solothurn, Kunstmuseum Solothurn, 2018 @Hanspeter Bärtschi    

The viewer becomes part of the map through his or her own movement. A new picture becomes clear by him or her stepping in between the painting and the mirror; by stepping back - or stepping closer. The larger picture, its location, the edges become tangible. There is the danger of direct reflection, but also the possibility to see through it. A narrow degree between orientation and risk, between a firm step and a jump, through which the unknown opens up.
