If you're in Berlin this week - and we know you are- you should totally drop by at Obey Art Space this Wednesday for a drink!

DAZWISCHEN by Berlin-based photographer Lisa Wassmann.

After bringing the world to a hold over the last two years, it weirdly feels as if the pandemic is done for good. But even though we can use this particular time to regain social contacts, dance again and enjoy our lives, we know that we are just “in between“.

Photographer Lisa Wassmann displays personal works with a focus on this exact feeling. A feeling of worldly dread and despair, that under the right circumstances can be muted for a moment. Her photographies and installations show a scenario of joy, dancing, and the feeling of not being alone in a world that right now seems to be “everyone for themselves“.
