This is not Cairo.
This is no ruin.
This is not my man.
This is no master plan.
This is no aquarium.
In her new long-term photographic project, "a f a r," Eva Bertram spins a web out of exasperating promises between the partly ruined and partly completed, disruptions in translation and inconsistencies in the public as in the private spheres.

This journey is both processual and solitary. At the beginning of this art there is the drawing, from which an entire microcosm of the psyche develops in an allover state that involves the entire surroundings. The previously deconstructed materials and objects from the immediately accessible world of consumer goods, as well as from the world of advertising, are brought together again now in an unorthodox way, exposing their fragile elements. From washed out leaves and foils, which have been drawn on in places, smashed and hammered panes of car glass, whose safety film finishes hold together the cracks and fragments of the formerly intact panes, Achilles changes everything into a new form.
