Trotzdem küsse ich deine Nasenspitze ( Still, I Kiss the Tip of Your Nose)
An artistic project on the independent lesbian and women’s movement in the GDR at the Elisabeth Selbert House, Berlin (Unter den Linden) in two parts
– dedicated to the courage and perseverance of all the women involved, whose remarkable actions irreversibly changed their own lives and who were not rarely subjected to imprisonment, state surveillance, and exile.
And to Petra Leonhardt, one of those strong women, who is no longer here.
Invited Art in Architecture competition of the German Bundestag, 1st Prize, implementation period 2027–2028
My work Still, I Kiss the Tip of Your Nose at the Elisabeth Selbert House consists of two parts: a wall drawing extending across the entire foyer wall, and an accompanying online publication (website), specifically programmed and designed for this purpose. This publication will convey the research behind the artistic work by revealing to viewers, through AI-based image recognition, the stories embedded in the drawings. When scanning the wall with a mobile device, archival materials and quotations from the GrauZone holdings of the Archive of the GDR Opposition at the Robert Havemann Gesellschaft in Berlin appear.
