PICTURETIME - Marten Schädlich

25. September 2020

Marten Schädlich in his work “Einzelwir” the philosophical concept of the monad into the picture, the simple and indivisible taxes. Monads are safe - there are no two alike - and they are self-sufficient - there is nothing that is better or can step outside. In their totality they form reality, although there is no real effect. Two towers, the right one like huge cliffs, stand in a landscape with wide green areas, scattered trees and strange elevations. The towers rise up into the clouds. Their common rights from their balconies have some outlook. You lost him in a trance. There is no experience between them. Everyone remains trapped in their own vision. Marten Schädlich's work “Einzelwir” formulates a parable of our society, which erodes through contact, exchange and perception of reality - just like the tower cliffs. Marten Schädlich (* 1986, working in Leipzig with Annette Schröter). Personal signs can be discovered in his eyes that give the guide hints: for example the banana tree in the arch of the doorway of the right tower, the bush at the entrance to the slow tower or the bicycles on which they give themselves climate-friendly to their huts.
