The idea to realize
an installation in turning the outside (façade) into a room or inner space came
up in 2000. I began to design a wallpaper series with Plattenbau façades. With the reversal of the outside and inside I wanted to develop an experimental and
sensual space caused by a high compression of the documentary material. I created a space in which this architecture's serial aspects could simultaneously unfold the
cruelty of endless repetition and the aesthetics of the minimal. The
oscillation between restricted monotony and the fascinating beauty of a structural
and serial pattern made the work into a tightrope-walk for the visitors who found themselves between two extreme effects. This installation was built in the basement of the Schloss
Solitude in Stuttgart – an extreme space, about 50 meters long, slightly
curved, without windows and had been shown in 2005.
