»After The Party« is a lament over the loss of certainty. A nostalgic yearning for a time before humans were bereaved of their agency and it was still possible to neatly divide the world in observing subjects and objects of observation.
HAUTE KANTÁR is a collaboration with jewellery designer Philipp Eberle.
Wearing a piece of this collection means to temporarily lose at least one of the five senses. The human body, centre of subjective experience as well as object to the gaze of the other, is simultaneously acknowledged and impaired.

Building on the tradition of artist manifestos this video employs the many-voiced pronoun WE to express thoughts about subject-object relationships and gives a defiant defence of the commodity against the return of the hand-made.
The Ease of Handling is a multi-media installation showing a series of looped videos on iPads attached to glass screens. A pair of gloved hands strokes a selection of objects, an act equally evocative of art handling, pantomime and the fetish of subject-object relations.

For this exhibition an on-going interest in domestic interiors and mundane objects is explored through the English term occasional table (a small, typically folding table with no specific function). The phrase resonates with the artist’s suspicion that an object may posses multiple states of being, independent from its common use. After all, if an object becomes a table only on occasion, what are its alternatives; what else may it be at other times?

In this video the loaded term creation is explored by bringing together a chatroom conversation, a 3D modelling software, an abondened house in Scotland and a 17th century print.
