  As Onoruame created the world, he made the EARTH somewhat too soft. Therefore the Raramuri dance on her, to stamp her solid and make her inhabitable for humankind. The SOIL gained in the Sierra Tarahumara originates from sites where the Raramuri people dance through the whole night. By dancing they thank Onoruame, who is both mother and father, for the rain and the harvest and ask him for good welfare for humans, animals and nature as a whole. I found the WHITE and the RED, which they use for the body painting of the Matachines, the dancers and which they use for cave and church painting. I gained SOIL from a place where the runners tank their energy. And I excavated also at the wide dispersed block houses of the rancherieas and in caves, where Raramuri still live today and where other withdraw in very cold winters. In the beginning of the New Year 2011, the pictures produced with this SOIL, will be on show here.  In October 2010 I am travelling to the Copper Canyons in the North of Mexicoto realize a new project. Together with the Raramuri people who live there, I will attempt to excavate SOIL from sites which have a significant meaning for them. I hope to be able to publish my first impressions of the journey here on my website.    at home (im Haus) - is the theme of the BIG MUNICH EXHIBITION 2010 / GROSSE KUNSTAUSTELLUNG MÜNCHEN 2010 in the House of Art / Haus der Kunst in Munich from the 11th August until 3rd October 2010.
