Joshua Thies was the third artist that have worked for two weeks in the Guestroom project space. His installation consisted of a 3D object - self designed wind-instrument and a voice recording.
Potentiality, motivation and fulfillment (terms constantly audibled from the speakers) stood for the basic concept that was supposing to call the viewer for action. The whole setting was a proposition for the deconstruction of a stage. Without physical podium as such and without a clear distinction for the audience and the performer(s).
This work could exist in its full meaning only then. At the very moment of playing and listening, at the same time.
