Ausbeutung oder wie man die Oberfläche durchbricht tells a story of a restorer who studies the history of mining guided by the image by Hans Hesse located at the back of the mountain altar in the church of St. Annen in Annaberg-Buchholz.
The work is an experiment in what happens if tracing an idea or a phenomenon replaces the practice of pointing directly at it.
It is preoccupied with construction - the process, the actors, and the space, as well as the image which captures the relationship between them. The five screens parallel late medieval painting style of the 16th century.
