Based on Max Oertli's "Gaukler" in the Stadtpark St. Gallen and Bruce Naumann's "self-portrait as a fountain", both of which depict the artist (male) as a life-giving source of inspiration, I would like to perform the painting (female) "me as a fountain". Life spurts out of me, the never-ending inspiration, I spit and sprout out of me, I twist and bow to those who look at art. At the same time, I involve the audience and ask for a word that sets "me as a fountain" in motion. As soon as I receive a word, I switch on my own fountain. These gifted words give me the impulse to call up stories and songs from my memory. These revolve around my memories of my childhood in St. Gallen and the city park.
