Polygone Symphonie annähernd krampfender Tasten, 2023

discarded tubes
640 x 425 x 665cm

'In the expansive interventions of the Polygon series, tensions from the interplay of individual sensory worlds and social conditions become spatially tangible. Pull and counter-pull, gravity and levitation, expansion and accumulation are central parameters of differentiated structural and interaction analyses. The material used is discarded bicycle inner tubes that are only connected to each other via sling knots. The concept is to find possible anchorages on site and not to take any structural measures. The result is a site-specific, biomorphic-looking network of tensions that questions the logic of social structures and opens up existing architecture for differentiated perceptual experiences at the interface of physical and social space.' Hans-Peter Wipplinger, Director Leopold Museum
