Das Werk stützt sich auf Theodor Rehbocks Buch von 1898, "Deutsch Südwestafrika. Seine wirtschaftliche Erschließung unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Nutzbarmachung des Wassers", um die durch die Wissenschaft gerechtfertigte Ausbeutung zu untersuchen. Es verweist auch auf die Regulierung des Rheinflussbettes und die Standardisierung von Sprachen als weitere Folgen des "aufgeklärten Kolonialismus". Die Videoinstallation untersucht die Erzählungen wissenschaftlicher Erkundungen während der Kolonialzeit, eingebettet in einen futuristischen Kontext.
Beschreibung (en)
The work draws on Theodor Rehbock's 1898 book, "Deutsch Südwestafrika. Seine wirtschaftliche Erschließung unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Nutzbarmachung des Wassers" ("German South West Africa: Its Economic Development with Special Consideration of the Utilization of Water") to examine the exploitation justified by science. It also references the regulation of the Rhine riverbed and the standardization of languages as further consequences of "enlightened colonialism." The video installation explores the narratives of scientific explorations during the colonial era, embedded in a futuristic context.
WHERE LEGENDS ARE MADE AND LIES ARE TOLD (graduation project). Originated by this divine union of @parishilton @britneyspears @lindsaylohan (aka the Holy Trinity <3) the night of the infamous Bimbo Summit, WLAMALAT is the visual and critical translation of my obsession for the #y2k it-girls and #popculture in general. Mixing a religious with a highly commercial aesthetic, the project questions several topics such as women representation in the mass media, visual/celebrity culture consumption and new belief systems.
