One of my works from the Hybrid series. Hybrid IV One of my works from the Hybrid series.

Hybrid IV, 2023
Acrylic spray on paper, tape, metal eyelets
180 x 200 cm

The “hybrids” are in the process of taking shape, it is unclear whether they are hugely enlarged or actually unfolded so large in space. Having just hatched, they are delicate, fragile and preoccupied with themselves and their metamorphosis. It remains unclear whether they have already found their final form or whether they are still in transformation.

Last chance to see my work „Cocooning II“ in t Last chance to see my work „Cocooning II“ in the beautiful Castle of Fürst Pückler @branitzerpark_sfpm in Cottbus until 31/10/24 💧

My work „Habitat“ is still on view @branitzerp My work „Habitat“ is still on view @branitzerpark_sfpm near Cottbus until 31.10.2024!

Realized together with @glasmalereipeters 

The installation is part of the interventions by @symbioticlab_, which can be seen in Branitz Park and Castle as part of the „Forest 2024“ theme year.
In Pückler’s time, a glass-covered arbor commemorated Empress Augusta’s visit to Branitz. As a contemporary reinterpretation, the installation „Habitat“ refers to the non-human organisms that shape the park by animating, inhabiting, infesting and preparing it. Tree fungi, feeding traces, eggs, caterpillars and cocoons gather on the colorful panes. Their presence refers to the climate change-induced stress on the old park trees and is at the same time a critical commentary on the human containment of nature and the associated categorizations.

Teaser zur Ausstellung „Verspielt?“ im Palmeng Teaser zur Ausstellung „Verspielt?“ im Palmengarten Frankfurt 🌴🪲🦋
Vernissage 17.07.2024, 18:30 
Laufzeit 18.07.-06.10.2024

Zu sehen sind von mir unterschiedliche Werkreihen von Bronzegüssen sowie neue Zeichnungen. 

Danke an @tomoumnadja für die Einladung zu dieser spannenden Ausstellung!

Seit 2021 begleitet das Leitthema „Blüten- und Bestäuberökologie“ den Palmengarten in seiner Programmgestaltung und Vermittlungsarbeit. Nun erhält es mit der Kunst-Ausstellung „Verspielt? – Roulette mit der Insekten- und Pflanzenwelt“ vom 18. Juli bis 6. Oktober seinen gebührenden Abschluss: Entlang eines vielseitigen Parcours durch den Garten
veranschaulichen unterschiedliche Künstler:innen mit Metallskulpturen, Videoanimationen,
Klangkunst, Fotografien, Malerei und anderen Medien unsere Abhängigkeit von Pflanzen
und Insekten. Die Kunstschau feiert die einmalige Schönheit der Natur und sensibilisiert für
den bedrohlichen Rückgang der Artenvielfalt.

Ausstellungsidee, -konzeption und Co-Fundraising: Dr. Nadja Tomoum in Zusammenarbeit
mit dem Palmengarten
