"Matter as a field of memory and resistance"
erasure / language / violence

The surface appears as a burned field, where the sign has been attacked and transformed.

The reference to the burning of books in the Opernplatz in 1933 runs through the work as an active memory. Combustion is not only destruction, but a political gesture: erasing language to prevent thought. Traces, residues, and blackenings construct a material that resists disappearance, retaining what has been denied.
