DELETE HISTORY
SEPTEMBER - DECEMBER 2020
This series of drawings depicts fighting scenes between characters from the classic game Street Fighter and sculptures from Art History. 
​The ironic title for the show “Delete History” works as a play on words on two layers: first, deleting one’s browser history in a contemporary internet context, and second, referring to the depiction of fighting scenes where game characters and archetypical, historic figures are placed in an arena to compete against each other in a one on one match.
The two counterpoints of the «contemporary» - as in screen based imagery - and the «traditional» - represented by the classic, art historic sculptures - are subject to this body of works.
This interplay between the contemporary and the traditional applies to both, the depiction itself, and is also a central theme in the way the works were created. Looking for analog ways of bringing digital imagery into physical existence, those drawings were created on a manual typewriter and line by line by the use of different letters and signs, reminding of codes. Due to the lengthy manufacturing process, the deceleration itself becomes a main aspect in times of constant information overload and hasty screen based interaction.
This is the first time that the whole series is shown together. It will be presented on a site specific wallpaper that was especially designed for the show.
