FOREIGN AFFAIRS

Selection of 23 photos (43 x 60 cm), 10 chairs.

In this installation, Framis explores the desires of a young Chinese girl living in Shanghai who dreams of living in a foreign country. To achieve her aspiration she looks for a man with a foreign passport. The work mainly focuses on the placebo of freedom, which in this case is deeply connected with seduction as well as the unavoidable feeling of loneliness. Apart from this, Framis also questions the amoral situations in post-communist countries.
