FREE SPACE EXPEDITION / 1994-95

MURALS AT AMBIANCE / ZÜRICH, 1992

Initially we intended to relax in Switzerland for a few weeks.
In order to kill time during the long winter evenings, we painted a mural in the kitchen of a squat
in Konradstrasse. This was met with broad approval, and we resolved to stay a bit longer. The
Zurich graphic designer and illustrator Michel Casa Ramona invited us to paint the facade of the
Ambiance, another squat in Konradstrasse. At that time I was influenced by Hodler motifs and
therefore used nothing but brushes and expired acrylic paints from the Opera House, in order to
express my protest against the omnipresent spray can street art.
