Bis wohin leben die Blätter nach ihrem Tod?

Wendland, October 2025

{“Where do leaves live after their death? | Jusqu'où vivent les feuilles après leurs mort ?” is a site specific & site specific exhibition that took place a commune in the german Wendland}

The events recalled in this webpage took place between 11:00 and 13:00 on October 31 2025 in a rustic room gently filled by wells of natural light. While in the space visitors could hear the rustling of leaves and gaze through a window to discover a young beech tree.


This multi-disciplinary exhibition investigates the relationship between our human cultural networks and the biological networks of our umwelt. Networks here are critically re-examined and redefined.

The five still-life sculptures exhibited by the artist suggest that networks live beyond their physical life. These stills were presented alongside a performance which was concluded by the creation of a post-exhibition site-specific sculpture. All the sculptures are composed and derived from local objects and biologic organisms. During the exhibition the viewer would encounter: leaves, a letter, a collection of cassettes, a workshop, and a single apple.


Each visitor attending the exhibition was asked to gather three acorns from the communes environment and leave them in the exhibition space upon entry.


All throughout the exhibition opening, the artist performed a piece inviting us to reflect on our relationship to our environment and our memories.

Starting from the base of the young beech tree and expanding outwards in an arc-de-cercle the artist gathered leaves one by one before placing the into them a small wooden basket.

At precisely 13:00 the artist stopped her gathering and closed the door to the exhibition room. All the pieces of the exhibition were gathered and incorporated into the basket of leaves.

This post-exhibition sculpture composed of decaying organisms and cultural memory totems has been placed by the artists in a barn to be preserved and rediscovered.


This body of artwork develops an aesthetic metaphor and symbolic poetry on decay, remembrance, and grievance.
