Marianna Christofides

©Roland Baege

Marianna Christofides was born in Cyprus in 1980 and is currently based in Berlin. In her practice she deals with entangled narratives that constitute the different layers of multi-authored places. Imprints of slow violence in the spatial fabric and subtle manifestations of precarity are negotiated in long-term observations and a physical engagement with the spaces under study. Drawing on an array of discourses such as environmental studies, spatial practices and literature her primary mediums are 16mm film, slides, text and sound. These are articulated in installations often emerging from archival and on-site research.

Oer-Erkenschwick

The Grand Snail Tour will be accompanied by literary, photographic and illustrative artists, who will collect impressions and reflections from the same city at the same time as the Trailer is there and put them into visual or literary form. The result is a paratext on the three-year tour, a travel chronicle in the form of a kaleidoscope of stories, connections and snapshots in the 53 cities of the region, revealing the simultaneities and non-simultaneities of the Grand Snail Tour.
