Places of Desire: The Alien Perspective

Places of Desire: The Alien Perspective is an installation piece that has risen from my research of queer spaces and my very own experiences in those spac as a teenager. In 2017 I started a drawing series of dancing, vulnerable, sad, heartbroken alien creatures that will now appear in the degree show as colorful textile sculptures within left behind things, within trash and within treasures. 


This is the tale of trash and treasure 

 who went along with moaning pleasure

far apart yet hand in hand 

 trough the litter wonderland  


no matter how thy story ends

bittersweet or sweet and bitter: 


both will rot but now they glitter 


by Ruth Unger (Dresden 2017, Trashure My Love, Ex14 Dresden)
