"Saftig"
was an exhibition in East Berlin including work by installation artist,
Jacue Liu and myself. We rented an old butcher shop and produced work
specifically for the site. The show took place in June 2003.
My intervention at "Thüringer Fleisch and Wurst" underscores
connections among the systems constructing the human experience. The pieces
include "Plumbing Intervention" and "Heater". With
these pieces, I was exploring the way that identity is constructed in
the context of the physical body, the space it inhabits, social systems,
and the history that develops. Representations of familiar components
of our lives serve to accent some of the physical nodes in this infrastructure:
household appliances, plumbing, ventilation, and electrical systems. The
revitalization of the abandoned butcher shop created the opportunity to
apply these principles to a space with a specific history embedded in
it’s architecture.
