MAPPING RHIZOME FOR SALE NO1 “FOUNTAIN”
2024–2026Found footage · available in various scales, formats and print dimensions
A media-based research project into ownership and value. It archives found footage of consumer goods, using the platform willhaben as a source for a systematic inventory, and examines how images of commodities steer our desires and how an object's value shifts through its digital representation. By extracting screenshots from their original context and transferring them into the archive, the mere screenshot is transformed into an art object — a “media ready-made” marked as pre-existing “waste” whose value is once again put up for negotiation through the artistic gesture.
