temporary installation / Bremen / Germany / forex / velcro / 300 x 300 x 300 cm

 

'Flatten Image' is a command used in Photshop to flatten different manipulated layers of a digital image to one, the final image. In my installation I built layers in reality covering the architecture of information and  advertising with blank staples of white surfaces. The project ‘flatten image’ relates to the urban architecture of the resident newspaper kiosk. Its entire surface texture will be changed and newly arranged. The outcome of this is an apparently homogeneous field. The viewer only realises that a change has taken place when taking a closer look. a disappearance of the "normal" information that is now hidden underneath the installation...
Katrin Korfmann´s constructions are integrated into specific locations of urban reality for short periods, evoking a new perception of the image.
