Mittelland

Installation with video, group exhibition «Dearrival» by Spieglerey, in «Lattich» art space, 16–20 October 2017, St. Gallen.

The installation brings the urban condition of Switzerland to a very average living room. The country is an endless series of independent municipalities, each with the same autistic groups of apartment buildings, single family houses, infrastructures, and industrial areas. The drone video makes abstract planning laws visible and brings them to the home tv. The fully furnished living room with personal touches resembles any other living room. It is as interchangeable as the urban landscape it is set in.
