Vitalfunktionen

2022 . sulfur casted in space . circa 200 x 100 cm

„Vitalfunktionen“ deals with the unpleasant atmosphere of an unclean and dilapidated toilet room. The sulfur is cast into the room in a geometric shape, it makes formal reference to the radiator and the round shape of the toilet brush holder.

The yellow color of the sulfur reinforces the unpleasant spatial effect, but also contrasts with it through its artificial, luminous crystalline appearance. Sulfur as a symbol for life energy (anima) is related to the trivial fact of excretion, as the basic condition of being alive.
