Das KloHäuschen

Das KloHäuschen is located on the edge of the wholesale market in Munich.

Originally a public urinal, Das KloHäuschen still shows signs of its former use, both as a bathroom and as a meeting place.

Work in progress

Each urinal was staged as a (mostly edible) still life.

HairPicnic draws on the tradition of still life vanitas painting and the memento mori. Over the course of the installation, the food was left to decay in the space.

Das KloHäuschen, Munich. In collaboration with Janean Williams.

For the closing event the floor was covered in gold leaf flakes, a nod to the Baroque and Rococo culture of excess.
