N.s writing chamber - The Sandmann
interactive art book exhibtion
Inspired by the story >Der Sandmann< of E.T.A. Hoffmann, an abandoned attic invites the visitor to explore its wonders: touching, turning, feeling allowed!
A fictional diary of N. (the art books) explore his mad daydreams where he confuses dreams and reality. His notes are pinned to the wall and all over the floor. His mad collection of oddities triggers curiousity and imagination... a cabinett of curiosities to explore science, esoteric believes, psychological theories and the original text of E.T.A. Hoffmann.
Hoffmann's spirit lingers between hissing radio noise, indirect light, dark romanticism and an eerie atmosphere.
