MTSV-Sofa, 2002<br />

Bags, backpacks, air bag, carpet, 220 x 140 x 100 cm<br />

»An organisation as an abstract sculpture reflect<strong>in</strong>g social cohesion is a model. The<br />

MTSV-Sofa as an organisational model is familiar to us from tra<strong>in</strong> stations and airports,<br />

where temporary sitt<strong>in</strong>g sculptures are created out of bags, when groups travel and<br />

meat. The flexible sofa is also a symbol of the constantly chang<strong>in</strong>g spatial situations<br />

<strong>in</strong> today’s mobile lifestyle and exemplify the deconstruction, reconstruction, sampl<strong>in</strong>g<br />

and reconfiguration <strong>in</strong> the sense of new applications of exist<strong>in</strong>g ideas. S<strong>in</strong>ce the <strong>in</strong>stallation<br />

can also be used as a chair and corner sofa there is an overlap even <strong>in</strong> the<br />

reception of the model <strong>in</strong> <strong>art</strong> and design. Moreover, a timeless temporary material<br />

surface emerges <strong>–</strong> one that speaks my sculptural language.«<br />
