Aimilia Theofilopoulos: Die Wand ist nicht tragend

In the organizer's words:

"Die Wand ist nicht tragend" is about the search for love from the perspective of a queer person. It is about bodies that take up space. It is about power and fascination, tenderness and pain. With "Die Wand ist nicht tragend", Aimilia Theofilopoulos invites us to explore the interplay between the body, love and the search for love. But the focus is also on the deconstruction of social norms and expectations of love and the body. Aimilia Theofilopoulos poses questions that (online) dating raises: How intimate can the first meeting be? Is the search for love a need or a field of experimentation? Is it one that needs to be staked out or expanded? Who or what can we love? And how does love behave in the life of a non-binary person? "The Wall is Not Supporting" attempts to unravel and circle around the construct of love and gender relations in a patriarchal world.

Aimilia Theofilopoulos, born in 1993, lives and works as a photographer in Bielefeld and Hamburg, Germany. Amilia Theofilopoulos studied photography and visual media at the HSBI and the School of Arts in Ghent, Belgium, and is a member of the artist association Artist Unlimited e. V.

The exhibition can be seen at the Kommunale Galerie until April 25. Excerpts will also be presented as part of the 23rd Nachtansichten on April 26 in the Old Town Hall.
