until 11.01. | #4508ARTatBerlin | PSM Gallery show from Friday, 15. November 2024 the exhibition Lost in Transmission of the artist Lena Göbe.
Lena Göbel (born 1983 in Ried im Innkreis, Austria) works on the basis of the traditional printing techniques of woodcut and drypoint in combination with painting and collage techniques. However, she does not transfer her motifs into soft, non-fraying wood in the traditional way, but uses found wood or historical wooden objects, whose history is often decisive for the resulting motifs.
For her exhibition Lost in Transmission, Göbel uses discarded everyday objects from her mother’s side of the family. In addition to cider barrels from the family wine press, a former door from her grandfather’s locksmith’s workshop, behind which all the machines were centrally driven via a transmission, a belt drive, was used as the basis for a printing block. For the artist, the element of propulsion symbolizes movement and the passage of time. In the technical and visual transformation of the historical objects into print templates in her own visual language, she carefully and powerfully approaches her own family history and transmits it into the present.
