'living in the age of drones - light' ∆ Hotel Amazonas


we reached a time that anybody can function as a drone. and that is a practice long exercised in some artistic disciplines throughout the centuries. but we now got sophisticated, hardware and software wise. but the practice itself did not change. to observe and be observed is a constant in art. somehow we enjoy to look upon things, places and people, to be able to transform it. but in the other hand we are afraid of being observed or investigated. wich is, today, almost impossible. it is part of the performative game of life.

by invitation of artists saori kuno, margareth kaserer and simon steinhauser i came to hotel amazonas open fields art festival & residency in the summer of 2015
