Happy End Hotel - Art Installation
As part of the Happy End Hotel exhibition by the artist collective broke today in Munich, I transformed a decommissioned hourly hotel room into a surreal dream world inspired by Central and South American art. The unique spatial conditions, such as the dark wall color, became the foundation for an immersive installation where painting and spatial design seamlessly merged.
Key Themes of the Installation:
We All Float On Okay
How much space can a painting occupy? I extended one of my paintings into the room by continuing its elements (wallpaper patterns, cacti, etc.) onto the floor. This created an expansive composition that dissolved the boundaries between painting and its surroundings.
Flamingo Herold
Here, quantity and originality converged. I designed wallpaper with printed flamingo images and contrasted it with my conceptual art project Flamingo Herold: a motif was hand-copied ten times to make the artist's traces visible. The question: Does art become more iconic through repetition or uniqueness?
Banana Women
A large, surreal painting that integrated into the overall concept of the room and reinforced the installation's vivid color scheme.
Eva and the Amazons
A wall painting that portrays strong female figures and explores the role of female identities. This installation was a play with space, form, and emotion—an immersive experience that invites reflection and blurs the boundaries between art and environment.
