Concept

A memory is composed of many different parts.
It can be conscious and subconscious and has
for each person an individual meaning, even
when the memories come from the same ex -
perience. The weight of memory is different every
moment, depending on the person, the time, the
situation, etc. Intentional and unintentional
pictures were taken of 8 films in Bedburg-Hau, on
the site of the "Rheinschen Landesklinik" (clinic
for sychiatry and eurology). Approximately 290
(5x7inch) pictures are rinted.

Each print is numbered. Some prints are cut to
1/3 inch by 1/3 inch. Other prints are left uncut.
The pieces of each cut picture are kept together
in a filmcase, to be collated on the panel. Some
pieces left in the filmcase are not collated. Each
finished work is done on only one print.
