MIT SYSTEMEN SPIELEN
Der Versuch, Dinge oder Naturphänomene in ein Verhältnis zueinander zu
setzen, um «darin», «dahinter» oder «darüber» ein greifbares System zu
erkennen, schafft Versuchsanlagen von Ordnungen, die gleichzeitig ebenso
hinterfragen wie sie etwas vorstellen und darstellen. Welche Rolle
nimmt dabei der künstlerische Blick ein? Was lösen Störung, Brüche mit
solchen Ordnungen aus? Was verheis-sen uns Prinzipien wie als-ob und
sowohl-als-auch?

At the very end of the room is Lisa Biedlingmaier’s video work MANA (2022). The title refers to the Hawaiian name of life force and is an energy healing code. We enter a mystical sea underworld, full of light and movement, and replete with macramé things. Often considered to be a treacherous place, this sea floor is peaceful and poetic. Filmed in a cenote (a natural deep-water well) in Yucatan in Mexico, these sites were once considered to be portals to the Mayan underworld. Biedlingmaier plays with our perception. The viewer might perceive the inanimate objects as living creatures. (A phenomena called Pareidolia.) This special turn of mind transforms sailing rope macramé into seahorses. Or one might consider the formations to be ancient artefacts. Their graceful gravitational dance and shapes trigger connections to the archaic, perhaps to a collective shared memory. Psychologically and mythically, water is the most common symbol for the unconscious mind. It is the realm of feelings, dreams and creation. The artist invites the viewer to delve within. It is a consideration on love, one beyond a tunnel-vision perspective and one that celebrates intricacy, tolerance and sentience.
