« PEELING OFF THE CARVE » is a persistent imprint reverberating, transmitting and prolonging the creative initiative of the interactive exhibition « DIE SCHALEN DES ORANGEN » (Kunststiftung Erich Hauser, Rottweil, Germany, 2024). On par with the happening itself, it materializes the process of a dialogue between local skateboarders, technical advisors and the facility as a resourceful context into a result that questions and challenges physical boundaries and common definitions in favor of exploring the odds for transformative possibilities of a given object - the book, the bowl. In echo to the documented action in situ, spatial considerations are given original layers of reading and meaning via the definitive determinism of the light used as a prism for enlarging the photographs that fixates a rigid history of live patterns into the singular state of a newly decipherable dimension.
The observer is engulfed into participation by object manipulation and interpretation, thereby enabled to construct and contribute with their own cognition as unique visions and fresh angles stem from rearrangements of the film strips and the resultantly protruding perspectives of narratives.Text is scratched on paper and traverses a linguistic landscape encompassing Croatian, German, and English, interweaving and interrogating the nexus of identity and existence. It is the retracing of a story that is the one of human adaptation to the surface, its tangibility and its condition.
The publication fades out with a contact sheet from the film that was in the camera upon arrival in Rottweil, serving to illustrate the timely essence of the process via the monitoring of the transformation of inhabited settings (Ivry-sur-Seine/Paris) and of personal evolution alongside the skateboarders and concrete walls.
