*DIRTY LAUNDRY* offsite exhibition / Altered States: BSMNT
(The Sparrow in the Hand is the Little Man’s Liver Sausage)
BSMNT has invited Don Elektro from Leipzig in Germany to produce an offsite show for Dirty Laundry. Don calls himself a VISUAL FAST FOOD artist and is mainly at home in digital media and the internet. With his move from the city to the mountains, his creative process has changed as well. More and more he combines digital collages with found natural materials and produces ceramics and sculptures, giving a haptic patina to the perfect artificial surface. The smooth digital production becomes alive and thus also ephemeral. In “Altered States / The sparrow in the hand is the little man’s liver sausage” he addresses his inner transformation and creates a very personal and haunting show in a pumped storage reservoir near the Saxon-Czech border that reminds us of crises as a possible new beginning.

This week, in my continued attempt to upload my summer backlog of slugs, I’ll be adding a bunch of wiggly guys.
