"EINTAGSFLIEGEN"
Installation, Performance
To turn inside out, to turn over,
to disclose invisible or to conceal visible things: many works of Eric Hattan
are based on inversions. For example, he turns the interior of a paper bag
or of clothes inside out and he lifts heavy furniture up to the ceiling.
Hattan particularly likes using an alienation strategy that distinguishes
itself by its transparency and its reversal. This strategy could be understood
as one possibility among many others to imagine the world differently. Hattan
creates movement.
He breaks through the order of things and gets round the statics of the
world with light, playful irony. (Claudia Spinelli)
