Socialist Amnesia: a wandering assemblage.
Edition with postscript 2023
Draft publications 2021 and 2022
In the sea of signs that rule contemporary life, the exploration follows the unsanctioned signs made by unknown authors - the tags in its housing estates as the hidden signs of an absented revolution
The residency is an act of wandering. It uses a single working tool -a small red star - as its guide. The red star is the project's marker of space and time; the recorder of the residency exploration that revisits legacies of history through other claims of the everyday.
The subject and object of exploration lay in the former GDR, particularly its vast socialist-era housing in the district of Hohenschönhausen. And their place in post-reunification German memory.
Lichtenberg Diary: exploratory readings from a residency in Lichtenberg, East Berlin.
