Projectinfo

The research for my artistic contribution to the exhibition “PCFS - Post-Colonial Flagship Store” is to be seen starting October 2 in freiraum quartier21 INTERNATIONAL. For this contribution I am searching for the traces of the only overseas colony in Vienna, the Nicobar Islands, an archipelago, that was partially under Austrian rule between 1778 – 1783. Thus there are traces in Vienna's cityscape, e.g. street names, but also numerous artifacts in the possession of various Viennese museums.

Residency February 2015:
Working on the exhibition project "united nations extended" for freiraum quartier21 INTERNATIONAL.
