Project “Flour Power”
"Flour Power" was created and developed during the corona pandemic, where we were thrown back on ourselves and at the same time observed the effects of the pandemic on our entire social fabric.
Flour was the starting material for the project, which initially referred to the way we deal with our resources, the (perceived) scarcity of commodities and food and the reaction to this, which led to the purchase of large quantities of certain items that ultimately could not be consumed to the same extent. This included flour.
I wanted to restore some of the value of flour as an indispensable staple food by using it sparingly as a raw material in an abstract setting. At the same time, I also wanted to symbolize themes that are of particular importance at this time:
The loneliness that comes from isolation, the social changes that can unite on the one hand and cause deep rifts on the other, but also the willingness to help and the intensification of relationships.
