I’m not a hero
(2019)

https://stoeckerselig.ch
A chalky scratch on a black background penetrates the silence: "I'm not a hero" is a remake of "The Rain" by Marcel Broodthaers (1969) and at the same time an artistic response and a silent provocation to urgent questions of our time. Why do we let the powerful men of this world play their power games and watch them destroy the basis of our existence? "I'm not a hero" subtly shows the antagonism between the will to do better and the forces that make this impossible. The statement is scratched over and over again on the blackboard, but it is impossible to manifest the work and thus the self-expression.
