Mobility is the ability to move or be moved freely and easily. It means the ability to move between different levels in society or employment
Sylive Boisseau and Frank Westermeyer are a French-German couple and an artists’ team. They collaborate in their works at the same time as they draw their ideas from their (cultural) differences and identities Their interest is devoted to spaces that are determined by language. The human being not only lives in physical spaces, but also in linguistically spaces. These physical and virtual spaces coin the mindset and structure our comprehension.
In the exhibition Mobility the artists try to measure those spaces, to fathom their limits and question what is happening between the individual space’s edges. Their intention is to play and to experiment with the role of the observer. The observer obtains more than a contemplative role, he becomes virtually part of the art piece itself.
The idea is to explore how the public space is overlaid by linguistic/cultural spaces. By a complex aesthetic experience the observer will face the linguistic and cultural relativity of his perception. |
