TRAUMBEFEHL consists of a single, monumental ’room installation’ that extends over both floors of the gallery space. Comprising paintings and drawings on different materials, which mix her hitherto characteristic figurative style with more-abstract and text-based pieces, as well as sculptural elements, the installation is made up of 174 individual components that are conceived of as one cohesive artwork.
Dealing with themes of mortality and dreaming, TRAUMBEFEHL functions as a diary, with visitors invited to follow Cahn’s thoughts and ’read’ entries along a pre-determined path set by the artist.
