The Fool at Sea

Embracing a diverse range of media, Anna-Sophie Berger confronts issues relating to distribution, consumption and production cycles in The Fool at Sea. Where previous work addressed these issues through food, images and clothing, this new series focuses on ways in which a municipality can produce and distribute public spaces for its citizens to consume.
