The video installations series „Bread and Games“ deal with the ruthless human addiction to immediate gratification.

The cut-open animal bodies each house a video rear projection showing the set-up of two typical fairground stalls – balloon shooting and the mole-out-of-the-hole game. The fairground serves as an outdated epitome of the hedonistic amusement park that we encounter every day in the form of Instagram, Tiktok and the like.

Like 90% of all mammals, the animal only found its purpose in human happiness after death.

The installation was made for and first shown at the exhibition „zuwege“ in September 2023. It was installed in an old, no longer used cowshed.
