A spacial film installation that explores the phenomenon of unconscious appropriation and uncontrolled fictionalization of memories
Geäst {ramifications} deals with the unconscious appropriation of memories in the context of transgenerational trauma. Incomplete retellings of our own origin stories lead us to automatically fill in the gaps ourselves, thus creating fictional narratives. In this way, a new narrative is created that appropriates the original memories. The project Geäst {ramifications} replicates this appropriation process in an immersive spatial installation and an essay film, inviting visitors to become part of this process.

Geäst {ramifications} befasst sich mit der unbewussten Aneignung fremder Erinnerungen im Kontext transgenerationaler Traumata. Unvollständige Nacherzählungen unserer eigenen Herkunftsgeschichten führen dazu, dass wir die Lücken automatisch selbst füllen, wodurch fiktionale Erzählungen entstehen.
