What happens when a rose withers or an orange dries out? What happens when a stone detaches from a rock and turns to sand? The common denominator is transformation - the transformation from one state to another. The Zurich artist Anna-Maria Bauer has intensively studied processes of change and transformation. She has ground organic substances into powder.
The result is of beguiling beauty and multi-layered metaphorical meaning. There are 49 identical metal bowls lined up in a row on table plinths. Each is filled with a different colored pigment ground to a fine dust. What was once a rose or bay leaf, a tangerine or oyster shell has been turned into colored powder by the artist in a multi-stage transformation process. During the production process, not only the consistency changed, but also the natural color. The result is a broad palette of restrained, warm earth tones that enchant with their different color nuances and subtle variations in tonality.
Monika Laib and her team will complement the exhibition with floral objects, creating their very own accents on the theme of stamens. - Each florist will work with a plant from the 49 stamens - Each florist will individually create an urn from the plant dust or plant parts - each one unique - In addition, there will be objects made of wire and plant parts: filigree, transparent bodies that nevertheless show form and structure
