Brautschau
2009

The German word „Brautschau“ comes from the expression „auf Brautschau gehen“ –
which refers to a man going out to look for a woman to marry.
Literally, the word “Brautschau” translates as “bride show” and
can also be understood as “showing the potential brides”.



All over the world and at all times, women have suffered physical pain and limitation
in order to be sexually attractive for men. Often, it’s even the women who inflict the abuse on themselves.
The tradition of their culture forces them to do so. A woman who does not submit to this
doesn’t have a chance of finding a man and being adequately supported.

childhood memories



I made this sculpture in 2004
when I began to look through diaries of my childhood.
I wanted to part with them but I didn't want to throw them away forever.
Therefore I decided to shred them and lock them in an urn.
The free-standing urn is protected by a coat.
