Spiral (Drawings)
Drawings, Ink on Paper, 41 x30 cm, 2010

The installation explores mechanisms of conflict. A spiral typically emerges from a single point, expanding and intensifying like fire or a rolling snowball. It can become entangled and spread like cancer, or unfold with agility and precision. As a complex structure, the tension between its lines is difficult to resolve—whether as an internal struggle or a multi-layered external one. This fluid dynamic continuously seeks escalation, drawing toward its core or shifting into an undefined state within its infinite possibilities.

Spiral – Barking Dogs (Video)
Two-channel video installation,loop, Bern, 2010

The two dogs barking at each other seem trapped in an endless confrontation. Their relentless barking fills the space with a loud intensity.
