Raphaela Vogel’s exhibition hosts impressive sculptural installations, mostly poised in precarious balance, often in combination with pulsating sound or videos that feature the artist herself (*1988). Her series of new works in this first solo exhibition outside the artist’s native Germany unfurls a world at once thrilling and dystopian.
