ARTIST BOOKS (EN/DE mixed)

THE TRIANGLE

The triangle on its way to work...
// 2015, 28 pages

HOW IT COULD HAVE BEEN / WIE ES HÄTTE GEWESEN SEIN KÖNNEN

How it could have come with TTIP and the elf if only circumstances had been a little more favourable.
An utopia (sadly).
// 2015, 28 pages

HUNGER. A tale of dread.

This is the biography of TTIP, who wakes up one morning to gorge on Europe. He just hadn´t thought about this one thing: the ladies. His craving for cars, churches, trees and the more should turn out to put him a spoke in the wheel.
Besides, this also is one of the most awkwardly produced books in late modern history which then luckily gets consumed by TTIP as well in the end.
// 2014, 40 pages or more

SCENES OF A MARRIAGE

A little insight into the married life of Mr Schmidt. He leads a rather calm and content life, only to find out one day, in astonishment, what his wife actually looks like.
// 2014, 28 pages

MY LIFE AS A RUBBISH BIN

(content and language of this book are too awful for being translated!)
Der ephemer-transzendent oszillierende Kunstbetrieb leidet an endogenen Depressionen bei hauptsächlichem Verlust von Sinnhaftigkeit. Es kommt zum Schlimmsten: er sieht keinen anderen Ausweg mehr als Sterbehilfe zu beantragen.

HANS IM GLÜCK

"Eines Tages sagte sein Chef zu ihm: Du hast nun sieben Jahre lang Scheisse gebaut im Konzern. So soll es denn an der Zeit sein für deine Boni und deine Abfindung."
Hans hatte nun sieben mal soviel Zeit für seine Frau. Das sollte nicht lange gut gehen.
Er packte die $3 mio. Bargeld in seinen Koffer und flog nach Zypern.
