NHK2 is a project spanning various forms and materials.
The artist in German Lederhosen constructed of leather resembling caucasian skin and blond hair, was initially deployed as an art-action in multiple European cities.
A photographic record/documentation was collected and assembled from the public and incorporated into artworks in the form of private and public art installations, limited edition C-Prints, beer coasters and so on. These images were redeployed in everyday venues such as city squares, bars, restaurants, cafes, beer-gardens , galleries and museums.
The audio is in conjunction with an exhibition from the Contemporary Art Museum of Houston, Grey Art Gallery, Walker Art Center and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts http://radicalpresenceny.org/
