Over the course of a couple of weeks, details about the life across the street, which were observable from a balcony, were recorded inside a small notebook. The contents of this notebook were then shown as a video installation on a house wall and the residents of the observed house were formally invited.
While observations across the street are always two-directional, looking through the door viewer keeps the observer anonymous and the observed ignorant. The camera follows the eyes from inside the apartment out into the staircase where noises announce the presence of someone else.
Property and home are two of the most self-evident things for most people, but both are blurred categories for the unsheltered. In a former drunk tank found objects that float between possession and garbage are exhibited and misappropriated for the art context.
