“... Plaster is a set material that was first dust and then fluid. In Georgia Creimer’s works it takes on sculptural shape (as in „Puzzle“) in contrast to writing and photography and forms a link to older works such as the „Landscape-cakes“. Framed in plaster are photocopies of the works of Thomas Ender, an artist who went to Brazil in order to explore a foreign land, recording his impressions in topographical images. They operate with the idea of „fabricating the foreign“ (Christina von Braun). These charming watercolours simultaneously document a conquest and domestification, the realization of a utopia as well as the extintion of the foreign, thus making the parlour synonymous with conquest. By calling these pictures cakes, Georgia Creimer goes a step further along the path of transforming the ‘foreign’ into the parlour. They are products of extreme dometification and are left in the parlour ready to be devoured....”
