Bertha (2025-26)
Installation views from @aujolimoisdemaibielbienne x @_lavoirie, 11.05.2026.

I started making costumes when I was 10, sewing tiny winter jackets out of felt scraps for my dinosaur collection. Mum taught me how to use a sewing machine and I started making my own clothes as a teen. Almost 30 years later, I still love working with fabrics, costumes and their transformative potential. Lately I've been experimenting with how to use costumes and props I've made after the performance moment is over. How can they retain their expressive force in an installation setting? Bertha is one such attempt, working with elements from performances created during the past few years around the character of wolf-mother Trix and her pups.

Has been a pleasure making costumes and objects for Karin Maurer's new show INVALID over the past few months. Premiere this Thursday night @schlachthaustheaterbern and shows continue over the weekend.

About INVALID
"At the age of 24, actress Karin Maurer registers with the invalidity insurance. An odyssey through the impenetrable realms of Swiss bureaucracy begins.

Drawing on her personal experiences, Karin Maurer’s performance explores the theme of disability in a high performance-oriented society. She deconstructs the absurd calculation of human validity and reveals what this process triggers in those affected."
