DescriptionCaesurae ist eine Skulptur aus der Werkgruppe die im Rahmen einer Residenz am 3bisf Kunstzentrum in Aix - en Provence 2017 entwickelt und in der Einzelausstellung „Issir-„ gezeigt wurde. Das Objekt war darüber hinaus Teil einer Performance im Ausstellungssetting sowie des Videos „The birds´delirium does not interest the trees“, welches in Kollaboration mit Filmemacher Nicolai Gütermann entstanden ist.Iris Dittler´s entire formal vocabulary may be said to constantly move back and forth between the body (her body), thought (the object as idea), and the object (proper). The latter is born at a point in the body, and is sometimes a line or a posture. Its plastic properties and proportions are meticulously tested. This is why, before the artwork, an overwhelming organic sensation dominates, a sensation that is at once a membrane, envelope, frame and skeleton.
Diane Pigeau, curator at le 3bisf, Aix – en Provence, France
Iris Dittler seeks to test the configurations sensed inside the body, as well as spaces, points of tension, the quality of the surfaces and internal matter, and attempts to gradually project these into the surrounding space by means of objects, drawings and performance.
