2009, installation, working clothes and shoes of students, Stuttgart State Academy Art and Design, Germany

During the summer exhibition visitors could see beautiful pictures, interesting intallations, contemporary sculptures, experimental performances etc. Working clothes are usually hidden somewhere or thrown away just because the majority think that they are too dirty and smelly to be shown in public. But the students forget how comfortable and nice their clothes were during their working hours. If not for their working clothes the works of art for the summer exhibition would not exist. The work process of artists is just as valuable as the works of art that are shown to the public. It is therefore important to present the working clothes at least once washed and in a beautiful room.
