Soundscapes, ceramics, improvisation, Dada, computers, rituals, and photography form neural pathways that run through many of his works and connect them across their diversity. Children’s drawings, photographs from the GDR era, early artistic experiments, and recent installations enter into an open dialogue. In Langsame Wandlungen, a space of light and sound unfolds in which both media retain their autonomy while corresponding with one another. Doppelspiegel captures visitors’ images and transforms them into a spatial, abstract animation; Waldstück mit Klavier unfolds as an evolving mechanical sound biotope. Klangholz für tastende Hände is both a wooden sculpture and a newly created instrument: visitors can explore it through listening and touch, coaxing from it layers of sound that range from simple to complex. The result is a personal web of memory, technological invention, and artistic freedom—and, at the same time, a space for visitors’ own perceptions, memories, and imaginations.
