Riegelbau is a series of wall works that are based on half timbered houses I saw during visits to Switzerland in 2010. They are some of the first in a larger body of work spanning from 2009 until 2020 which focuses on support structures, and how the shape of these have changed alongside a technological development which also has great implications for the workers involved in the making of houses and things.
The first group of sculptures were made during a residency at Die Fabrik in Burgdorf in 2010 and shown in an exhibition at Milieu in Bern, Switzerland the same year.
