Puzzle

„... ,Puzzle' is a combination of interacting plaster forms that embed sleeping heads, i.e., faces. Only the artist is awake or has woken up. Walter Benjamin considered remembering and awakening to be intimately related: „And awakening is the exemplary moment of recollection. It is the instance in which we succeed in recalling our next, the one closest to us (the Self)“. The puzzle thus manifests itself as a „form of practical recollection“ (Walter Benjamin)...“
