_More Than Just Plumbers

An Instagram exhibition and also a documentation on my over three years of work (as an artist) in a plumbing company. I started working in this profession due to the worsening financial situation and problems with finding paid employment after studying at the Academy Of Fine Arts. The idea for the social profile developed after finding a photo on the Instagram account of the photographer Wolfgang Tillmans. It depicted the silhouette of a photographer reflected on a car surface of a plumbing company with the slogan More Than Just Plumbers The photo made me aware of the specific situation in which I found myself ( as a visual artist in the role of a plumber) and encouraged me to observe the surroundings intensively. This is how the profile was created, on which I have been publishing images made with a smartphone during work days for several years. In the meantime I changed my occupation, I am currently an assistant in the drawing workshop at The Academy Of Fine Arts. It’s ok, it’s different but I don’t feel comfortable in any of these professions. I earn a living but I have the impression that these classes are too tight. I feel best when creating, which is why I learned to approach such different professions as a subsequent topic or role that I can work on, interpret, change into art and leave.
