2023

Künstlerhaus Vienna, Austria

Addressing topics like work-live-blending, quiet quitting or tensions involved in the transition from analogue to digital technologies, the site specific installation creates a critical perspective at our modern work life. Details such as an infinitely overflowing coffee machine or a seemingly casually thrown blazer labelled "DREAM" express the nuanced irony inherent in our workplace break culture in the context of capitalism. At the same time, the installation opens up a discourse on contemporary painting, everyday life and the art space.

The installation consists of a built-in kitchen, carpeting, a white leather couch as well as a a large table with chairs, four printed paintings, and various objects, offering an immersive experience. Escape from the daily grind just as from the exhibition format: Reflect, refocus and return refreshed.
