DAS WEITE SUCHEN / Seeking the Distance

Exhibition at Haus zur Glocke, Seestrasse 91, 8266 Steckborn
June 14 to July 12, 2025

In this exhibition, I am presenting four works that deal in different ways with themes such as flight, memory, the environment and imagination. I am interested in how movement - whether physical, internal or symbolic - shapes our perception. In my installations, photographs and video sequences, I combine real experiences with poetic images and invite the audience to discover their own associations.

Migration Memory
On my journey from Switzerland to Sicily, I collected water, sand, stones - and above all waste. I filled plastic bottles found along the way with these traces. The result is Migration Memory: a silent archive made of PET that tells of landscapes, people, flight and consumption. At the vernissage, I perform a gesture: I go into Lake Constance with rubber boots, let them fill up with water and bring them to the installation. There I mix the fresh water with the salt water from my journey - a poetic act about connection, the environment and change.

PFERDINAND
In this interactive VR installation, I explore my own fascination with horses. PFERDINAND invites you to immerse yourself in a fantasy world in a playful way - between escapism, addiction and longing. Visitors sit in a saddle, wear a VR headset and encounter a world in which it rains little unicorns (Many Thanks to Helen Galliker, Game Design, for the VR).

In the Eye of the Sea
Over several years, I filmed the Mediterranean under the influence of the eight typical winds - always from the same place in Sicily. The superimposed sound and image tracks merge into a moving, rushing whole. The sea appears as a multi-layered being - beautiful, unpredictable, deep. For me, it is also a mirror of inner states.

Rainbow Coat
I am showing a photograph from my "Dearest Unicorn" series in the SBB showcase. The picture Rainbow Coat stands for the vastness of the imagination - for the right to dream, to escape, to reinvent. The unicorn, a symbol of freedom and strength, accompanies me through several works and links reality and fantasy in my own way.
