Haruko Maeda & Michael Heindl

As we know it

26 May – 1 July 2023 | Halle

In their joint exhibition at Elektrohalle Rhomberg, Haruko Maeda (*1983) and Michael Heindl (*1988) reveal the fragility of the normality and the mundane. Through painting and film, they independently declare the always only supposedly existing normality to be the central aspect of a contemporary, human crisis. In the combination and juxtaposition of their works, a general problem is made tangible: the concept of the normal proves to be extremely imprecise and is always subject to the consistent change of realities of life.
