"Von: Mir / An: Mich II", 2016
160 pieces of photo paper sent
via post as postcards, unique pieces
1
The project “Von: Mir / An: Mich II” ("From: Me / To: Me II") documents the light impressions of 160 photosensitive postcards on the way there and back from Berlin to Sofia as well as the dispatch within Berlin.
This type of documentation offers an insight into unseen information that leads to a sensitive tension between intimacy and abstraction - a defined path and its surprising results in the context of an experimental approach: Unknown objects throw overlapping shadows and create a fragile structure, referring to different lighting conditions or spaces, a fingerprint conveys an unexpected concreteness of this traveling archive of states.
