Diagonale 25´
Festival of Austrian Film
Graz (AT)
My shortfilm "Weisse Bänder" will have its Austrian premiere at Diagonale film festival:
A white ribbon winds incessantly down from the summit towards the valley, flowing around flowers and mushrooms, dripping over moss and roots. Until the strange trickle turns into a small stream and reaches civilization. A bizarre-looking natural spectacle of eerie beauty.

Screening: 5 pm, 60 min
My Film "Surface Séance" was selected for the 17th Science New Wave Festival in New York and will be screened as part of the shot film program "Beneath the Skin of Dreams".
Dreams are a yet-incompletely-understood realm of inspiration and anxiety. But these films are less about the mechanisms of dreams themselves than about the possibilities that open from them. A pea plant, under anesthesia, dreams of history, invasive seeds shed in a coliseum and of its role in 19th century taxonomy. Dreams connect a constellation of forces related to the modern industrial landscape and threats of climate change. A close study of the marks we leave transforms the commonplace. And hovering between life and death, dreams spool out an irrational and ever-shifting landscape of beauty and unease. This is an invitation to hypnagogic worlds.

Opening: Sep. 20, 7pm
Exhibition: 21.9.2024 - 15.11.2024
I am very pleased to announce my first solo exhibition in Slovenia.
In the exhibited works I deal with the dynamics and conflicts that arise from a continuing alienation between humankind and the world. One focus is on the contradictions and paradoxes of human action that arise as a reaction to the crisis-ridden present. I am particularly interested in the momentum of repositioning that is inherent in these situations of uncertainty and loss of control.
European Forum Alpbach
Alpbach (AT)
Date: Aug. 26th, 5pm
An international short film selected by VIENNA SHORTS will be presented prior to each of the four main stage debates at the EFA24 event, providing a thought-provoking impulse. The artistic contributions will kick off the conversations and present a new approach to the topics under discussion!
Afterlives (Michael Heindl, AT 2022) will be shown at "Financing the Green Transition", 26 August, 5 p.m. at Herz-Kremenak-Saal (Congress Centrum Alpbach): Making the invisible visible through everyday dadaistic acts, Afterlives highlights the fate of consumer items: energy-intensive in production and soon discarded.

Opening: Sep. 3rd, 7 pm
Exhibition: 3.9.2024 - 28.4.2025
In der Ausstellung sollen die Besucherinnen und Besucher das Phänomen Versandhandel als ein komplexes Netzwerk aus Akteurinnen und Akteuren mit verschiedenen Rollen und Perspektiven erleben: Sie bieten Produkte an, füllen den Warenkorb, liefern aus und nehmen Pakete entgegen. So entsteht ein vielschichtiges Beziehungsgeflecht, das durch Kommunikation und Bewegung zwischen den einzelnen Beteiligten geprägt ist. Die Ausstellung möchte die Prozesse hinter den Kulissen aufzeigen, den Wert und die Menge der zu leistenden Arbeit verdeutlichen und den Versandhandel in den Kontext unserer modernen (Konsum-)Gesellschaft einordnen.
