Wohnen – Abschreiten – Sortieren uses a selection of projects that I have realized over the last few years in urban and rural areas. It is an experiment to make these works visible in the art space without retelling them in a purely documentary way. Fragments of work become the vehicle for a new situation that brings together the coloring and language of past, temporary projects with more museum-like (or residential) works.

With housing, I am “embedded in the familiar in order to bring in the unusual and to be able to do the unusual. I am embedded in redundancy in order to receive sounds as information and to be able to produce information. My apartment, this network of habits, serves to catch adventures and serves as a springboard into adventure.” (Vilém Flusser, 1992)

Walking is one of my artistic modes of action: Dog walking routes (Dog Spotting, 2007/2010) are walked, movements in the apartment are mapped (Wohnzeit, 2011), landmarks are marked out on everyday paths (Dilly Daily Dishes, 2011). Walking is the “dialectic between dwelling and the unusual”, the shift that enables me to become aware of my ‘dwelling’: “Consciousness is precisely that oscillation between dwelling and the unusual, between the private and the public…” (Vilém Flusser, 1992)
