Chloride, paper, folded
Dimensions variable, 2016 – 2018

This group of works is based on historical folding instructions for paper airplanes, which were folded contrary to the plan, becoming avant-garde space gliders. The bleaching simultaneously imitates a fireproof, glowing coating and reminds us that we are made of stardust.

Beyond that, the space gliders unite two longings of mankind, which are expressed in two great historical events of aerospace: one being the dream of flying, which has been fulfilled by the first flight in a motorized aircraft by the Wright brothers in 1903, and the other being the longing to travel in space, which was achieved when Neil Armstrong became the first human being to set foot on the moon in 1969.
