Pierrot le Fou, 2012 installation in situ paper, found objects, plastic bag, tape, string, soap, plaster, glass, aerated concrete blocks Alte Saline, Hallein, Salzburg

Pierrot is the paper in the heart of festivities. Massive public demonstrations. Right in the heart of the carnival.

Here is an attempt to put paper on a helicoid spin, in the same way that Pierrot swings his feet freely over a lit fire.

Paper is formed on the handrails of the upper floor of Alte Saline.

“Free class jump (the migration of gestures)”, sculptural installation and text A reinvented exaggerated balance beam taken from gymnastics acts as a key question around education models and economy.

The growing product of evermore increasing tuitions demanding for financial elasticity but resulting in diminished return profits and minimal employment prospects.
