About this artwork
You have checked into room 2022. This room is, except for you, the passenger, almost empty. Deprived of haunting thoughts.
Anyone who enters this room is entering a reflection of a reality of choice, amnesia, distraction, and to some extent, chooses to enter ignorance.
What you don't see, what you don't experience, what you don't feel, doesn't exist.
Please stay where you are and distracted, avoid any engagement. Don't gaze at the dead Elephant… in the corner. It is already dead and big, too big to absorb, too big to solve and too much to dissolve.
Stay calm at all times, we recommend looking the other way and act unaware. Focus on something funny. If necessary, say something amusing.
There is an Elephant in the room that is far too big now, too late to solve while it is already dissolving itself. It will soon be out of sight.
Just keep going and stay distracted, then all will be fine."
If a tree fell somewhere and there was no one to see it, did it even happen?

« To me, innovation is not a purpose in itself but the result of progressive insight and the need to stretch and push my own boundaries. »
Marit Otto is a multi-disciplinary Dutch artist whose work has been exhibited in Netherlands, China and Vietnam. Implementing a range of materials from graphic to plastic, she portrays human nature in its sobriety - stripped of pretence, with particular focus on the human body in all its shapes, forms and behavioral aspects.
