Marking the passage of time in space
(2017)

This text presents painting as a visual mechanism with which to communicate the otherwise invisible concept of the limitless passage of time in space. To do so, it demonstrates a series of ways through which the mind negotiates with the hand to process painting materials and techniques as part of an attempt to materialise the invisible. Consequently, the act of painting itself becomes both subject and motivating force. This project was first envisioned whilst travelling on a train high up in the Andes. My curiosity, although frightening was well rewarded when suddenly I noticed that the train tracks were not only limitless, but also invisible due to the speed of the train. At that moment, time and space became both eternal and invisible. Elucidating the invisible through sensory and non-sensory perception is not an easy task, for it implicates a conundrum that is no longer exclusively the domain of science but rather that of art and philosophy working in concert.

"Forma" is a visual inquiry on the limits of perception and understanding. It is about the moments when it seems we can grasp, understand, but the truth eludes us. About the hesitant movement that comes with this moment, about that mystery. Weight, strangeness, loneliness. Enchantment, silence, and a promise of something hidden, something that is far away, either too big or too small. About our perception and understanding of space. What is the void, what exists between things, what separates or unites them? Trying to show space, imagining shapes. In search of that emptiness, I found other things difficult to see, opaque things, abysses, darkness and too much light. I keep looking, in the night, in the snow, in the fog.

This is the project description of my second artistic research project within the frame of the graduate school "Performing Citizenship" (HCU/Hamburg).
Title of the project:
"Hallo, Marsch! Kollektive Walkingperformance für Mit-Läufer und Schritt-Macher."
It was a participatory performance which was presented at the Hallo Festspiele on the 09.09.2017 as a walking performance from the Berliner Tor to the old Kraftwerk Bille at Hammerbrook / Hamburg, Germany. It startet at 3pm in the afternoon and took one hour.
After the performance the audience filled out a questionary.
