Ellen Möckel develops exhibitions as holistic architectures: To this end, her multi-layered works made of acrylic, cork, wood, and fabric are woven together into an installation that engages with the surrounding environment. At the heart of the exhibition, the concept of dignity – as outlined by Lea Ypi in her book Aufrecht – is vividly explored. How can values be asserted when visibility thrives on simplification? Between legibility and overload, the exhibition unfolds a space in which language loses its stability, vulnerability is addressed, and the focus is directed toward the tensions that have emerged from the endless flood of images in digital spaces. Through repetition and juxtaposition of individual fragments from Ellen Möckel’s archive of forms, meanings are shifted and layered until they become entangled in chains of contexts that simultaneously connect and decouple. What once seemed unambiguous becomes the surface of permanent reinterpretation. In the process, connections emerge to art-historical movements within the ukiyo-e tradition and modernism – from Surrealism to Color Field painting.
