Lucas Foletto Celinski
Lucas Foletto Celinski’s artistic practice deals with the representative quality and analysis of symbolism. This starting point developed from an interest in psychoanalysis and poetics. The subconscious of the psyche is enacted in working practice and materialises in the work itself. For the exhibition Bedded-Down Knot in Künstlerhaus Bethanien, the concept of boundaries is extremely […]
Kaori Yamashita
Kaori Yamashita’s installations incorporate specific features of the current spatial surroundings and encompass a variety of artistic media: three-dimensional drawings, small-format sculptures, drawings on paper, photographs, objects constructed from mortar and papier-mâché, or wall tiles. One frequently recurring motif is structures reminiscent of constellations of bricks: those elementary, omnipresent components of architecture, which may stand […]
Sandra Boeschenstein
The immediacy of drawing is an important premise in Sandra Boeschenstein’s work: it is a precondition to “the simultaneous traversal and observation of the transitions between perception and thought” (Boeschenstein), in which the artist is mainly interested. She works with images as her primary tool of insight when searching for alternatives to a static concept […]
Window Display
In Qu’est ce que c’est la maturité, the artist Manuel Graf examines different modes of action and angles of perspective across seemingly unrelated object arrangements. Fluctuating between archaeological architectural models, surreal mobiles as well as hyperactive toys, these are unified into a sober presentation that is reminiscent of a movie set. In this neutralizing setting […]

Chia-Wei Hsu
Chia-Wei Hsu’s artistic approach is characterised by the creation of special ‘narratives’, film documentations, into which he incorporates site-specific characteristics, history, and also myths and legends from the collective memory of the inhabitants of the place in question. More recently, Hsu has been focusing his research primarily on the effects of the Second World War and […]
Window Display
The films of Andrew Benson (http://pixlpa.com) interweave infinite layers of visual loops into a hypnotic digital maelstrom. Based on fractured gradients, polygonal feedbacks, painterly gestures and data extrapolated from webcams they collide in a rushing speed – reminiscent of the groaning continuous load of our optimized society. Originally conceived as ever-evolving real-time work Benson sliced […]
Prajakta Potnis
Prajakta Potnis’s work is concerned with reciprocal relationships between the hidden and the visible, the private and the public, and inner and outer worlds. Walls both inside and out, but also skin as the delimitation of her own body, are metaphorical concepts that she understands as models of thought and makes into the object of […]
