Mariendom

The God of Men (Frauen im Mariendom)

Zoe Goldstein (AT), Margit Greinöcker (AT)

The Representatives by photographer Zoe Goldstein focuses on the ways of looking at things and through the metamorphosis of the pictorial material, the content, the story in the picture, is transferred, so to speak, from the spiritual to the mundane. DIE BETRACHTERIN (THE VIEWER) by Margit Greinöcker focuses on individual representations of women in the New Cathedral (Mariendom Linz) with changing perspectives - with artistic and scientific interest and with optical equipment.

Maa Kheru

Christian Kosmas Mayer (AT/DE)

Using CT scans of a 2000-year-old Egyptian mummy, the artist created an exact replica of the mummy’s vocal tract, which he then fitted with a movable silicone tongue. Mayer played this artificial vocal organ as though it were an instrument and produced a range of vocal sounds from which he then composed this multi-channel sound piece. Falling somewhere between science and poetic speculation, the resulting sounds take us into the depths of time and combine the archaic with the hypermodern.
