Winzerla Woods (2005)

Winzerla Woods (2005) poster

An artefact from the time when I created my best-known experimental film “_grau”, while living in a district of my hometown Jena called “Winzerla”. The atmosphere in this building block area, built in the 1970s in East Germany, was sinister, but it gave me the solitude to refine my work in my private studio space. The dark undertones of that time have become engrained into my artistic practice, and coincidentally, a few years after I made the film, the right-wing terrorist group NSU met in the same district, thus opening one of the darkest chapters in recent German history."
