About the exhibition:
Having had two very different geographical starting points, with Candelaria having grown up in Argentina, and Annegret in the east of Germany, this exhibition serves as their meeting point. While the two women had been experiencing belonging and non-belonging in various ways and places apart from one another, they recognize this search as a strong common denominator.
All the facettes that come along with a search for belonging play a vital role in their work: experiencing glimpses of (non-)belonging, trying to fit in, losing connections again, feeling emptiness, counting one’s losses, and starting over, all the while pondering about the things and connections lost along the way.
“Who lives in this house?”
and
“Who wore this glove?”
are questions that served as the starting points for this exhibition. The idea of a ghostly presence, one that is not fully graspable, haunts the artists: Something was lost, whether it might have been a connection or a physical item.
Through sharing these experiences with one another, the two artists are now also encountering the things that bind them together as humans: acknowledging that things transform constantly, and establishing meaning in human interaction by addressing these experiences through an underlying, new feeling: Most was lost.
And suddenly, the loneliness becomes more bearable.
