Summary
  1. What is the expected shelf life of scientific findings? How soon do they land on the garbage heap of history? Jenny Michel uses scientific-technical representations, maps, and encyclopedia from the past and combines them with materials that lead to questions of value, duration, and transience. She dissolves the material in a unique palimpsest-like aesthetic, makes cut-outs, glues, staples, and collages it, lets it dangle from the ceiling and stretches it across walls and suspends it into the room. The result might be slightly uncomfortable for the viewer, since the real dissolution candidly reveals the dubiousness of ideologies, theories, and truths and, above all, allows this to be physically experienced. Art perceived as an image of archives and recording systems, as a repository of our cultural heritage, in this case, though, actually reflects dissolution and decay. --Publisher's website.
