With their walk-through installation, the artist duo Studio Beisel invites you on a journey between this world and beyond. Visitors traverse various landscapes through five rooms, both physically and mentally. Parallel to the physical experience, Laurenz Raschke and Kajetan Skurski conquer the virtual space in the form of artworks composed of Non-Fungible Tokens. These NFTs exist only virtually and are based on the traces left behind by visitors, which can be experienced on ‚studiobeisel.com‘ and ultimately purchased. The both spiritual and digital journey thematises humorously the human desire to leave an imprint on the ephemeral world.
