Passagen ‘Aggregat’ exhibtion Cologne
Collaboration with Janne Schimmel as Schimmel & Schweikle
The installation ‘’Flatscreen’’ is a visual investigation into the relationship between a physical object and it’s digital counterpart. For it’s omnipresence in the digital and physical realm we chose the monobloc garden chair (it’s conception not being possible without the help of computer modeling software) as a perfect candidate to represent both worlds. By flattening the side, front and top view we create flat duplicates of the chair from which we construct a new 2D representation. On these flat views we print a render of the 3D digital representation to mimic the original spatiality of the chair. The capturing of 3D space on a 2D surface has always played a major role for mankind to be able to understand it’s surroundings (paintings/photographs).
