Walk as an Artist, 2025 Installation, live performance Charcoal, ladder, burnt chairs, epoxy resin, 20 min.
„Walk as an artist“ consists of an installation and a complementary performance. First there’s the mural writing of a mind map that walks through the process of artistic practice. It traces the natural movement of thoughts: not straight, but circling, pausing, repeating, skipping ahead. Thoughts don’t function linearly — and neither does the act of making art.
The structure of the mind map is then translated into movement: I begin my walk on burnt chairs — objects of support, bearing the marks of a reliable but well-worn time. At first, there is caution. Then trust begins to build, the pace quickens, a rhythm emerges. Over time, under the weight of my walking, the chairs begin to shift — slowly drifting apart. Until the circle collapses, and I am walked out. ___________________________________________
