Once in Freiburg

A memory can bring to life the circular nature of existence, allowing the subject to travel recurrently through previously realised pasts. Photographs and literature are also capable of transferring the bygone into the freshness of the present moment. The aesthetics of inhabited space is articulated in architectural shapes. It is an essential part of the collective national narrative, a cultural philosophy recounted into the fabric of being.

(Translated by Carla-Rose H?kkinen / English translation checked by Glyn Hughes.)
