Böhler & Orendt
In "DOOM SNOOZERS", Böhler & Orendt develop a dark comic science fiction speculation for Spreepark Art Space. The expansive installation interweaves existing and new works to create an audio-visual scenario of accessible dream worlds where time and space, real and fictional events merge.
The exhibition focuses on the visitors themselves. As "dreamers," they follow a course through various dystopian visions. The fictional technology DreamKeep activates the artworks assembled in the Eierhäuschen and adds a suggestive audio track to each one. As the voice and face of DreamKeep, the virtual dormouse Jill guides visitors through the exhibition via headset, picking up on the visual theme of each work and speculating on it as a DreamGuide.
The drawings, prints and sculptures selected for DOOM SNOOZERS, some of which are new, come from different contexts and are united by a sometimes affectionate and humorous, sometimes ironically distanced exaggeration of the political, economic and ecological effects of the havoc we humans are wreaking on our planet.
The starting point for this exhibition is the installation TOWARDS HUMANITY! by Böhler & Orendt, which will be permanently accessible when the Spreepark opens in spring 2027. The model for the work is the occasion for one of the dream scenes in the exhibition.
