In True Stories / Narratives of Absence, Ellen Kobe presents works at Biesdorf Palace that transform historical events, political narratives, and personal and collective memory into subtle, often unsettling visual and narrative spaces. Taking real events and their gaps as her starting point, Kobe explores how history manifests itself in absences, shifts and fragmented narratives. Her artistic interventions open up new perspectives in which the invisible, the repressed and the overlooked can be experienced as a powerful space of the imagination.
