Stefan Strumbel - “Heimat”
"What the fuck is actually home, or why does the cuckoo clock end up on an Egyptian housing development?" says Stefan Strumbel.
The German word "Heimat" originally refers to the relationship between humans and space, now tradition meets Pop Art. Urban lifestyle implicates here the preservation of historical heritage, further to dare to find new perspectives aside from familiar paths.
