// go ahead, 2006
Model, 35 x 35 x 35 cm
Fiberboard, acrylic paint, paper, pvc, glue, permanent marker

This model represents a section of a hallway in a shabby residential building. Along the hallway, an open door allows a view of the inside of an appartment, un-inhabited for years. Paint and wallpaper are peeling off the walls, exposing layers of bygone time.
Paradoxically, both standstill and acceleration are apparent – even the graffiti “go ahead” is eroding and one wonders whether its admonition is progessive, ironic, resentful, or resigned, and whether it refers to individual choices, to changes in society, or to time in general.
