A1000 investigates, on the basis of architectural-materialist conditions, which experiences determine our perception of reality. Both material and immaterial spatial experiences and assumptions form the basis of the subjective and collective construction of reality. These are to be unmasked, deconstructed, reversed and thus recognized. The central setting of the work is a genuine existing site, which in its heavy concrete cast could perhaps be described as a foreign body in the urban landscape of Berlin. The existing structure opens up an enclosing space that is separated from the urban reality and forms a space of its own. Just as our social reality is determined by acquired systems, so too is the reality of material construction. Architectural conditions, for example, represent, unify, separate, disrupt or govern.
Through the purposeful play and use of objects installed by the group, interacting with perspective, the chosen space is leveraged and deconstructed. The analogy of ruptures transcends within the intermediate level. It is not to be located in the here and now but also not outside the existing reality. The viewer is at the mercy of irritating effects - things are not the way they appear to be. The boundaries between real space, digitality, staging and documentary are blurred. The project combines installation, wooden objects, poetry and video works. The result is a 5 minute video.
A1000 is a group project created while attending a course at Berlin University of the Arts in Winter 20/21, collaborating with Luisa Herbst, Meret Schmiese and Mattia Friso.
