Dear friends

As we are all slowly ending hibernation, I'd like to share some upcoming and ongoing projects with you. The group show Shartiy - Teilen, Tauschen, Verzichten opens this Sunday 7 March at Kunst(Zeug)Haus Rapperswil.
In Bern you can still visit my installation at Wyss Academy for Nature, a collaborative project on ecology and transformation through art.
We sincerely hope that public events will be possible again soon and we will be able to meet at Kunsthaus Grenchen for a screening and talk of my video Forest Tales and Emerald Fictions. Video Window by Bruno Z'Graggen will host the event as part of the Exhibition Im Wald on 
Wednesday, 19 May 6.30 pm.
And please save the date for the opening of the exhibition Grund at Froh Ussicht in Samstagern, an outdoor exhibition with Saskia Edens, Sara Masüger and Monica Ursina Jäger opening on Saturday 29 May 2021.

It would be lovely to see you at one of the occasions.

Warmest wishes,
Monica

GRUND
Froh Ussicht Samstagern
Outdoor exhibition with
Saskia Edens, Monica Ursina Jäger and Sara Masüger
Opening on
Saturday 29 May 2021

In uncertain times, many things fall back to the ground: What endures? What is truly essential? Earth lends its name to the entire planet, although only a very small part of the land mass is actually fertile.  We move in a breath of atmosphere on an even thinner fertile layer of soil that has grown over thousands of years. Although the fundamental function of this top layer is evident, the grounds beneath our feet are being exploited. Valuable rare earths are excavated to be replaced by hazardous waste. The Earth's crust is worked relentlessly and violently. Paradoxically, or perhaps precisely because of this, the soil is one of the least explored habitats on our planet. The outdoor exhibition “GRUND” brings together three artists engaging with the topic in its broadest sense. Located on the farm Hof Blum the installations create a strong dialogue with the practises of agriculture, natural processes and dynamics of interconnectedness and co-habitation.
