Solo Exhibition, Kunsthalle Palazzo (2022)


                                                 Exhibition tour

The exhibition in the fall of 2022 at Kunsthalle Palazzo was dedicated to the artist Sonja Feldmeier. She works with media such as painting, sculpture, video and audio and combines these different approaches to create complex installative works. Numerous journeys have taken Sonja Feldmeier to the most diverse parts of the world. These adventurous experiences have always led to new inspiration and new works. In the process, she develops groups of works that are constantly growing and being added to. The exhibition at Kunsthalle Palazzo is dedicated to the work complex "Based on a True Story", which has developed over many years and is now being shown in its entirety for the first time. The basis for this was video recordings made during a trip to India. Over the course of several days, Sonja Feldmeier documented the felling of a monumental sacred tree that had to make way for the construction of a pilgrimage road. In the process, an intimate portrait of the local workers and this extraordinary felling process was created with rudimentary means. From these photographs and from synesthetic experiences, colorful paintings as well as sculptures were created in the following years, which are directly related to the film. Many works were created especially for this exhibition.
