Point Blank
with Evangelos Papamatthäou-Matschke
2016
Mixed-media installation with photographic light boxes, architectural model and window lettering
Dimensions variable (light boxes: 120 × 80 × 15 cm)

Created during the European debt crisis, Point Blank juxtaposes photographs of abandoned billboards in Greece with the visual language of speculative real estate development in Germany. Installed in a street-facing exhibition space in Munich, the work examined uneven urban and economic conditions within the European Union through the aesthetics of architectural marketing.
