12 Stories/Atelierhaus Salzamt/Linz/2018
The "12 Stories" project is an attempt to visually tell the narration entrusted to the artist. Entering the local community of Linz, built of people of all ages, gender and cultural roots, from the position of a person coming from outside world for a short period of time. The artist becomes a kind of medium, listening to 12 stories of various people, referring to the photographs that they bring. Each of these stories will enclose in a collage, that will become the only kind of registration. Without a sound recording or notes – each of the stories will be remembered and visually elaborated by the artist after hearing it.
People invited to the project are residents of the city of Linz, who want to share with the visiting artist their story – a story that, through a collage created in a later process, will connect those two strangers for a moment.
