FILTERS | ASTAN MEYER, CILLE SCH & MMT
The artistic work of Astan Meyer in collaboration with Cille Sch and MMT as part of our Lockdown Residency represents an unpolished and challenging act of self-care - the questioning of unfiltered self-portrayal.
“We live in a world where faking success has become more important, especially with the rise of social media. Where is self-care in the midst of this mess? " - Astan Meyer.
Astan Meyer, Cille Sch and MMT on the work: The filtering, which seems to have become a prerequisite for self-expression, is the exact opposite of real self-care, the toxicity of today's world. "Even if we criticize it, we use it ourselves. We are all trapped in this matrix," says Astan Meyer. Our video work “Filters” is the practice of going back to basics and escaping superficiality while embodying the gesture of a certain sisterhood and solidarity.
