I wrote my will when I was nine. At that time my parents built a garage for their new car. That was important, because a new car can’t be exposed to sunlight. It damages the paint. I want them to drive the car into a ravine. I wrote that in my will.

When I see pictures of my mother when she was young, I see a woman who doesn’t need me. She is not thinking about me, not thinking that I will become the most important thing in her life, as she says. Back then it was her art first, later it was me. I’d have liked to have met her back then. But maybe not. She seems so independent. Would she have liked me?

Sisyphus
photobook, inkjet print, 40 x 30 cm
42 pages
2017

Sisyphus is a woman¹. She likes everything that is mummified, small skeletal parts, flowers and herbaria, everything ephemeral. Emotional involvement happens a lot in the restoration process, but that always gets you directly into a hell of mess, she says. Retouching is linked to touching.
