For the Kalo Mina show in August Karin Karinna Bühler is extensively seizing the side windows of OTTTO.
Critical curiosity and the playful passion for words are crucial in Karin Karinna Bühler's practice. Her installations are based on local research that disclose relations and continue to resonate beyond the surface of the apparent. She analyses society and questions the way we use language, power and sex. 
Text as an instrument for writing history, defining values and retaining power has been in use since about four thousand years. Our contemporary societies are still patriarchal due to the centuries long exclusion of women from science and politics. Most archives contain only "History" but no "Herstory", which also mirrors many other aspects in life. 

"You understand me?" in Greek letters refers to many current cultural and socio-political questions. When two cultures meet a common language–a lingua franca–is as much needed as the ability to act with openness to meet the foreign. To find the "right" language might become a difficult endeavour.  

Karin Karinna Bühler lives in Trogen CH where she works as a freelance artist. She has completed her studies at the Zurich University of the Arts with a Master in Scenography and further education in information technology at the HTW Chur CH. Karin Karinna Bühler has received various grands and her work is part of public and private collections.
