now open: Camie Klein „Bodies in Residue“

Camie Celine Klein is a multidisciplinary artist working across sculpture, installation, and performance. Her practice explores the tension between abstract systems and subjective experience, focusing on temporality, transformation, and physical presence. Her work engages material, kinetic, and auditory gestures at the intersection of sculpture and performance. Klein studies at Hochschule für Gestaltung Offenbach and has received the Helene Hecht Nachwuchspreis (Stadt Mannheim) and the Wasmer Family Sculpture Award (HfG Offenbach). Recent group exhibitions include Plurale at documenta Kassel. Upcoming solo exhibitions include a solo exhibition at the Studio, Kunsthalle Mannheim.

Bodies in Residue explores how bodies inscribe themselves into architecture – not through mere presence, but through what remains. Doors and floors coated in soap absorb touch, grease, tattoos, and particles. These surfaces become soft thresholds where contact turns into memory, while simultaneously disturbing identity and order: soap, normally associated with cleansing, is here contaminated. It now functions as an architectural membrane, holding together cleansing and contamination, stabilization and dissolution.
