MA Rafael Lippuner
Installation, intervention, objects, public space, new media, video and photography, collage.
Rafael´s work originates in the constellation of the everyday. The worlds that surround us consist of social, political and physical structures, which form its inhabitants and vice versa. Objectives of the body are repeated and turn into routine, routines are facilitated by the use of objects, objects become extensions of the body. Through a process of modification, disguise and assimilation, the artistic investigation follows the relations between people and structures. Moments of uncertainty as well as the potential of failing are sought after, to uncover possible turning points within our lifes.
