Both Vienna and Berlin are very popular places for artists and curators. Now that you’ve reached the half of your stay here, can you maybe tell us whether you’ve noticed some differences or similarities so far?

In terms of the style of art, aesthetics and also discourses, it’s quite similar – I can’t see any big differences. However, the networks and communication are really different. The fluctuation in Berlin is really high, many people are coming from outside, only stay for a short time, so the scene is constantly in transition. It’s moving all the time. Whereas here it’s – I wouldn’t say steady – but it’s more set. So it’s really easy to access the field for me as an outsider.

Whom do you mostly work for in Berlin?

I’m mostly writing my PhD thesis, which is the starting point from where all my work goes to different directions. I write for different magazines – for example KubaParis, Camera Austria, Springerin, Spike Art Magazine – the formats always vary, sometimes I write more experimental, sometimes more classical reviews.
