J.H: We use conventional materials-glass, wood, concrete in the case of the Goetz building-but we relate them in unaccustomed or new ways so that their tradional character disappears. Glass is not glass anymore,it is as solid and stable as stone or concrete. Conversely, by printing on concrete, it suddenly becomes porous or shiny like glass. This bluring of materials has nothing to do with artists. it is connected with our interest in questioning conventional categories and establishing new references as to what volume or weight or surface can mean.
Catherine Hürzeler: You can only work with things that are familiar because the world is there, it exists. That is related to the phenomenological aspect we were talking about before. All of our insights come through observation; but you have to keep making new observations. By looking, you keep seeing new things. Everything is so complex and so alive that ccuriosity is decisive. It is much more important than repeating the world on the basis of a once discovered canon. syf 69
