Fadenspiele / String Figures
Overview
Intro
They tell stories, they are a pastime, they make the unspeakable visible, they connect people.
Between eight fingers and two thumbs, sometimes between toes and teeth, threads unwind figures. Thread games can do many things: they tell stories, they are a pastime, they make the unspeakable visible, they connect people. Whatever they may be, they have always occupied art, ethnology and theory: as an aesthetic practice, as a collector's item, as a non-Western figure of thought. The exhibition explores the possibilities of interaction on the ruins of our history.
