Visit us at Art Karlsruhe, the fair for classical, modern, and contemporary art.
At the international art fair, we will present the project “MARS! Mobilizing Awareness for Resilient Societies," and we invite you to use Mars as a playground for our future on Earth.
Amidst a Martian backdrop, we, as cosmonauts of our everyday lives, are developing prototypes for resilient coexistence, whether far away from here or on our home planet.
We cordially invite you to visit us in Hall 3 at Booth H2/S04.

Installation
sein – Anika Hirt
sein
2016/2022, Metallized foil, fans, Arduino
sein is an installation consisting of one or more gold inflatables. These inflatable objects move through an orchestrated system in rhythmic, breathing movements. The installation invites the viewer to engage with the present moment and offers a serene escape from the noise and hustle and bustle of everyday life, inviting a contemplative experience.
In this version, the inflatable is accessible, and the material acts like a one-way mirror. Unseen from the inside, one can observe their surroundings.
The installation pays homage to an exploration in the Utah desert in 2016, during which similar objects were designed that people could enter and move around in. In sein, however, the focus shifts to a static interaction in which movement and the outside world are observed.
