Zussamenspiel focuses on the creative process of interpretation and description essential to the practices of two Berlin based artists with visual impairments, Jan Bölsche and Silja Korn. Both artists use various ways to “see” and capture the visual world around them – Jan through digital technology that allows him to capture and enlarge visual details he would otherwise not be able to see, and Silja, through hearing verbal descriptions that paint images of the physical world firstly within her imagination and that she can translate onto a physical surface.
