Sabine Hess in the Berlin studio.

On the outskirts of Berlin, photographer Sabine Hess (*1994, lives and works in Thun and Biel) found herself in the middle of a natural idyll. A forest settlement by the lake, whose complex origins meet current realities. This chance encounter became the starting point for her ongoing photographic work and research Ein Haus am See. Over the course of her scholarship, Hess returned to this place again and again - searching, observing, documenting.

How does the view of nature change when it becomes the scene of history? And how does the past enter into existence?

A change of location in the name of art - the exhibition series, which is the result of a collaboration between the cultural department of the city of Thun and the Kunstmuseum Thun, presents the artistic processes and works that the studio scholarship holders have experienced and created during their time abroad.
