SAYING WATER – WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
Water covers 70 percent of our planet. The human body is made up of 80% water. Water can mean both life and death. It is a force of nature, powerful. A substance with a changing character in a variety of colours and shapes. A place. It is what we both long for and fear. A resource - probably the most precious in the world. And it is disappearing. Inspired by the essay "Saying Water“ by US-artist Roni Horn we explore the complex character of the element. In the catalogue we show water as something that is continuously changing.
Participants: Ida Kühmstedt, Kaya Kursave, Sophie Leopolder, Magdalena Liebert, Linnéa Logge, Zoe Mendler, Selina Möschler, Elian Müller, Elena Najdoska, Antonia Neb, Kevin Nguyen, Anna Praß, Felix Ranftl, Levi Rixner, Nicole Rodionow, Gloria Sardu, Franziska Schack, Emilia Schauler
