The starting point of Vijan's artistic practice is his own history, which he understands not as an individual fate, but as a politically, bureaucratically and socially formed constellation. His works tell of the arbitrariness of colonial property claims, how these are socially produced and stabilized and are still embedded in institutions today, as well as their colonial history. For the Kunstverein, Vijan is developing an expansive installation that transforms the architecture of the first floor. The exhibition explores the possibility and planning of a counterloot as well as the connection between space, hierarchy and power.
