Selina Camenzind / Isabelle Benvenuti: Lucky Little Girl with a Huge Dollhouse 2114
13. Dezember 2024 – 23. Januar 2025
Selina Camenzind and Isabelle Benvenuti, finalist bachelor students at the Institute Art Genre Nature HGK Basel, engage in their project with the mission of the DOCK archive, focusing on promoting and preserving the region’s artistic environment. They critically examine stereotypes of the past and future, investigating the house as a site of memory, a narrative space, and a projection surface.
Inspired by Barbara Feuz’s handcrafted wooden dollhouse “My house is your house” (2014) and Anita Muçolli’s “tearextractors” (2011), they question the contrasts between nostalgic objects and futuristic, clinical forms. Their vision: a “Dollhouse of the Future” that imagines what such a house might look like in an automated world—and who would play with it.
On January 17 at 7 PM, there will be a special event with an artist talk.
