›Ariowitsch-Heim‹, 2002/2003
Photographs, Documents
The piece ›Ariowitsch-Heim‹ shows photographs of a former Jewish nursing home
in the Waldstraße neighborhood in Leipzig, which at the time of the making of
the photos, stood empty. In 2003, a book with photographs, documents and texts
was published out of the results of the research.
„This work that lies before you is merely an attempt to get closer to the invisible
memories of a place. I can't encompass the Shoah with my work. I can merely cover that which I,
as a member of the third generation to come after it, find: traces, memories, and a great
emptiness.“
