Diary

The sacred-looking installation made of Persian fruit leather on acrylic glass was presented in the partially rebuilt bell tower of a former castle church from the 16th century and the Klingspor Museum in Offenbach.

Lavashak , as the fruit leather is called in Persian, is one of her earliest childhood memories. The sweet and sour taste and the gummy bear-like consistency, as well as the smell and the anticipation of the original from Iran, awakened long-lost memories last year. 

Held against the light, it looks like a church window illuminated by the sun. 

The installation can be read like a diary. Each piece stands for an experience or a trace of it, which forms on the skin: some are more present and some have already faded. Amber, gold and brown tones have something nostalgic, noble, but also down-to-earth and natural.
