May / Winterling

The history of the former railway works in Lingen, Germany, whose buildings now house facilities for the art, media and business communities, inspired artists Ruth May and Susanne M. Winterling to create a number of works, which they designed specially for display in the Kunsthalle Lingen and which are documented in this publication.  
Ruth May’s fabric and paper collages, ink drawings and costumes, which evolve from the folds of reality, together with Susanne M. Winterling’s films, objects and photographs, can be seen as metaphors for movements that bind the railway works space with its different stories, and vice versa.
