collaboration in/with/around Munich 1

We gather unwanted objects in Munich and use them to create something new; our mark as visiting art students. We're making something both for ourselves and of ourselves with things the citizens of Munich no longer have a use for. 

The objects' shapes, sizes, states and previous functions are not important. What is important is that they are all assembled as one new object. Once we create this new object we take it in turns to either paint it or lie upon it. She who lies upon it does not get painted on, but everything around her does. We use one colour. Once the entire new object has been painted, the recliner gets up and by doing so her mark is left upon it; the area upon which she lay is left unpainted. We have made our mark, and ultimately it is our absence which which marks our presence.
