‘Frankfurter Tor’ - My day begins and ends here.
‘Frankfurter Tor’ - My day begins and ends here. The tiled walls of ‘Frankfurter Tor’ U-bahn station are creepy and old, stained with everything from blood to paint to urine and just plain oldness. When I walk under my old stasi building I get a blast of the past. It’s etched onto the tiled walls and I feel like I’m in a giant swimming pool with no water in it.
Drawing on site and taking photographs and then returning to ‘Frankfurter Tor’ with pieces of a puzzle everyday is a practice that is relatively new to me. This is the first time I have worked without a studio space. Berlin is my studio.
