One breath, one circle, one moment.
“Every moment I am someone else.”
Diverse Range of work
During the Pandemic in 2020 Anke was searching for security und safety and found it in her work. In her home studio she created a piece that she later incorporated in a performance in public space, when being outside was authorized again.

19 Nov – 25 Nov 2018 Anke performed on 7 days ‘Breathing with clay’ at 20SQUARE7 Gallery Space in Berlin, Germany. During the performance she synchronised her breathing with her gestures to create vessels with a fully present body and mind. Every time her mind started to wander off, she would drop the work in her hand to start over again. In front of her grew a pile of clay visualising her absent mind.
