old as stars dreaming of decay in the dome constructed for her like eyes never revealing her external body to follow the urge to go why should she be the one eastern beast not allowed sister flames burning in the streets terrifying terror sighs echoing from every wall incredibly beautiful and insanely loud navigating tired maps walked by others bring pain slow bit by slow bit it is simple to say caretta three times in three cities waters shadow rises again almost there piecing a shattered screen together again be permanently resident do not turn to myth she would hate that

“How The Fuck Did I End Up Here” describes the post adolescent state of melancholia: the feeling of being lost while actually being very focused. And the state right before the age of having to define who you are and how what you do is who you are. The first retrospective in a state of flux: the exhilarating force of moving on in the world/a mission, a fear of loss in between random try and error success. The fear of revealing too much but wanting to participate, to be meaningful. Rehearsing success and foreshadowing what will be lost. Overwhelming nostalgia vs. knowing everything is always getting better.
Participating Artists: Alma Alloro, Jennifer Chan, Malte Bartsch, Valeria Drotskaja, Linda Franke, Flaka Haliti, Johannes Makolies, Thiago Parizi, David Schröder, Magnus Sönning
