Auf der Kippe/on the brink

Who doesn't know them: towers of dishes. Unfinished household chores, old dishes, pots and cutlery piled up in the sink and often next to it. There's never enough room for them.

This everyday observation is the starting point for the small series of dishes with pots and cutlery, struggling for balance and at the same time urging to get things done. Colorful, ironic, and in the manner of old paintings, these tools and mounds of daily eating are staged against a dark background and sparse lighting. Detached from the context of daily annoyance, the porcelain presents itself in daring stacks and disconcerting towers, to which one can hardly believe the balance and expects that everything will topple over in the next moment. A typifying staging in the face of the sophistication of banal risks that we create ourselves day after day. (limited edition of 7 + 2APs)
