in rāumen denken
»in rāumen denken« is a series of 30 hand-painted miniature figures, each bearing a title. the title places the human being in a spatial relationship that, in its associative ambivalence, provides information about diverse spatial productions whose origin does not lie in a physical-materialized determinacy, but rather in a thoughtfully performative mode of existence.
the title of the series proclaims that instead of thinking in delimiting categories, we should think in terms of spaces whose ephemeral boundaries are free, mediating, and negotiable.
