post lockdown karaoke installation

ASA Open Studios was the first public event of HfbK that was possible to happen after months of severe covid restrictions, online classes, an empty school building and no possibility to get together and show work apart from digital space. My installation invited people to step forward and to what felt like bravely act and interact though it still felt weird and illegitimate. Taking digital aesthetics, largely blown up images of flowers color-edited in photoshop as vinyl prints and sticking them to the floor and the walls, it was an improvised karaoke setting and a space to bring people together. This installation in the courtyard became the middle of the opening event, offering people a space to newly explore togetherness and proximity.
