DREAM LIVES OF DEBRIS (AND WHAT HAS LOCATION MAY BE APPROACHED)
by Lara Ögel
Dream Lives of Debris (and What Has Location May Be Approached) begins with the image of a leaf and the verses of a poem by Goethe from his collection West-Eastern Diwan. These two clues are the start of a fragmentary visual narration which focuses on the dual nature of human beings. Nature and culture, personal and collective, past and future interweave in the artist’s body, in the spaces she crosses, and in the historical and personal images interspersed in the countryside.
