laurahogeweg
laurahogeweg archives the entanglement of space/object/body. She examines this by using her own body, (domestic) objects and the space itself. These are structured by a phenomenological perspective, personal memories and collective histories. Like a building’s history, her grandma’s chair, her lost rooms and/or works from previous presentations. Carefully chosen colours act as a common thread in her site-specific works, which include installations, (video)performances, sculptures, paintings and artist books. Through creating site-specific works she underlines space as an active carrier of meaning which is always interwoven in a (historical) tangled web. By recontextualising what is already there, she protests in silence against the illusion of manufacturability and embraces her shown perspective is part of multitude of perspectives.

Instagram post: 12/16/2025 The Ambiguous Veil of the Floral Pattern
The last weeks I collected floral wallpaper and fabrics from personal memories. Through Simone de Beauvoir's novel Les Belles Images and Agnes Varda's film Le Bonheur I'm reflecting on the tendency of floral patterns to conceal. They express a perspective of prettiness, simultaneously, an idea of hideousness is kept silent. Some fragments might be part of a work rooted by my current research of the miniature/maquette/dollhouse/cabinet as a grid to bear narratives.
