""State of Repair": An award-winning film about repair and inventiveness in the context of the further development and sustainability of objects."
March 16, 2024 in Oberdiessbach is all about repair. Together with the three industrial designers, Liam Gerber, Lino Fischer and Thibaut Wenger, we will immerse ourselves in the cycle of use and repair and celebrate repair and inventiveness with their award-winning film "State of Repair".
The jury of the Alexis Victor Talberg Foundation justified its award as follows:
A chair falls from a great height and smashes on the floor. No need to worry, because Lino Fischer, Liam Gerber and Thibaut Wenger know what to do.
In their performative short film "State of Repair", the makers from the Industrial Design department not only focus on the repair of this defective chair, but also document its new construction. They repeatedly repair the fragile piece of seating furniture with found objects and drop it to the floor again to carry out further stabilization measures.
In doing so, the artist trio raises a relevant question that deals with the further development and sustainability of supposedly broken objects in our lives. How do we deal with disused objects in our everyday lives and to what extent can our understanding and handling of them change?
The motto "Repair Revolution" manifests that everything deserves another life, even if it becomes art. With this vote, the jury awards this clever and rhythmically well-designed hybrid format, which charmingly transforms a chair, but also its entire audience.
