About the exhibition
It was after a visit to India and the sight of a mountain of rubbish in New Dehli that Jannik Abel changed her artistic practice to a limited material; everything that is used is gathered in the forest, shaped with a saw, knife and axe, and has the opportunity to become soil over time. Back to the Land has been developed in its entirety over the past year and within the context of several worldwide crisis situations.
