Nest that doesn´t cradle

The nest is linked to the atmosphere in post-war Germany, which was mirrored in family lives and their way to communicate. Growing up in a non-communicative family warmth and safety were lacking. So the form and the material of the huge flying nest refer to these circumstances. The windings with thread are the scarfs of the pain that was felt.

It meant a long journey, a huge effort and a deep thought process to acquire the knowledge needed to create this cellophane nest which did not cradle. At the end of my MA I am able to leave the nest, start to fly and embark upon a new stage of life.
