I do care about that!
Shooting stars, stars in one’s hair, and stars in the spotlight. In the exhibition Dreck unter den Nägeln, stars appear repeatedly, as if accompanying us through the rooms. In one painting, countless new stars tumble out of a star’s mouth. The star's gaze conveys astonishment, confusion or perhaps even slight surprise.
Eva Nüßlein’s works speak of emotions — those that appear suddenly, like shooting stars, and those that linger longer. Emotions we know well and those we may yet discover. Together, we will explore the exhibition and discuss the emotions we encounter and those that move us. In the museum studio, we’ll take a closer look at the worlds of stars and emotions depicted in the artworks. We’ll ask ourselves which emotions are important to us and which ones we truly care about. Then we’ll let all of that flow into our own colourful world of shooting stars.
