The project room Saprophyt by Barbara Kapusta and Stephan Lugbauer is based on the concept that what ever is shown and produced in the exhibition space remains there and each invited artist faces these traces as challenge and opportunity.

 

For the exhibition Table of Contents Lechleitner developped a site-specific video performance piece entitled Saprophyt Activations in which a selection of objects and art works formally presented at Saprophyt was activated, projected and animated. One aim of the video was to reactivate the remaining fragments of some previous shows by replaying some of the originally related media. In other chapters Lechleitner intervenes by fixing, cleaning or reinterpreting one of the art objects. All the objects shown in the video were also presented in the exhibition space in a new constellation.

 

In parallel the video First Activations was projected: a first long version of the video Activations in which selected contributions by artist, writers and scientist to Lechleitner’s project Sense Correspondence were activated, combined, responded to and interpreted.
All the drawings shown in the video were displayed as originals on two tables in the exhibition space.
