excerpt

2014, Installation, 14 wooden sculptures (basswood), high definition video 2min47sec. (loop)

"A Dog and Wooden Sculptures" is a collaboration work with their dog produced during their MuseumsQuartier residency.
In the project, they carve various shapes chosen randomly from an encyclopedia in wood by hand, and gave them to their dog as toys.
Destroyed, deconstructed or rather improved figures were installed together with the video of the dog playing with them innocently.
