Sleep is … characterized by … surroundings [not rotting]

 

Found Compositions

​

Exhibition from July 03rd – July 12th, 2026.​​​​​​

​​​​

​​

“Sleep is … characterized by … surroundings [not rotting]” artistically negotiates the place of sleep. Years of engagement with the artist’s own sleeping places culminate in three overnight stays in the exhibition space, producing three new sites of sleep.

​

“Found Compositions” is a format in which found situations are negotiated as compositions through spontaneous, associative combinations of photography and text, guided by a predefined set of rules, and are thereby artistically appropriated. This approach has resulted in a series comprising more than 300 such combinations.

​
