Settlement
2017, oak wood, 60 x 50 x 25 cm
Grown structures and people‘s relationships shape the microcosm of a settlement in a very small space. This constantly changes its appearance on all sides by moving in, moving out, re-building, decay, destruction and filling of gaps. Additionally, global decisions and external in uences also make an impact. The interplay of internal and external processes gives each settlement its unique history and configuration.
