All the artists involved in the Berlin exhibition work with and on architecture or use architectural elements as building blocks for their artistic practice. Their individual works playfully deal with the constructions and de-constructions of spaces and objects, stimulating new reflections on these matters.

In their unconventional and conceptually provocative use of architectural language and space, these works linger between figurative and research-based projects, leading to the creation of new pictorial and sculptural pieces.

The artists are searching to grasp the foundations of the construction process, both in architectural practice and in the plastic arts.
