A few moments from the Rundgangs Opening at the Spinnerei’s Werkschauhalle.

Dinner ‘Bites’, art, conversations & encounters — all surrounded by works by all artists of b2. Exactly how we like it.

Our new exhibition flansch / flanš with works by Beatriz Meyer and Karoline Schneider is on view until October 10, 2026.

Heide Nord
Parallel Time
Unit July 18.

Heide Nord’s works drift between scales, from microscopic crystalline growth to remote aerial perspectives, oscillating between intimacy and distance. A recurring set of egg tempera paintings, produced in vertical A-series format, appears throughout the exhibition like dispersed atmospheric signals. Across these surfaces, fog-like fields of luminous colour emerge and recede beneath layered grid structures. The paintings evoke auroral skies, weather maps, or frozen light without settling fully into representation. Their grids suggest systems of mapping, measurement, and containment, while the unstable grounds beneath resist fixed orientation. The works gather traces accumulated through movement across the landscape: fleeting perceptions held temporarily within vivid frames, where atmospheric phenomena encounter structures associated with navigation and control.

[…] A similar tension appears within the sculptural “light objects”, assemblages constructed from neon and
iridescent plastics combined with reindeer fur and iron ore collected in Kiruna. Their sharp geometric forms
and high-visibility colours draw from the visual language of Arctic sportswear, ski equipment, emergency
signalling devices, and survival technologies – objects designed to orient bodies within conditions of snow,
darkness, and reduced visibility. Simultaneously synthetic and tactile, industrial and organic, the sculptures
evoke forms of adaptation shaped by extreme environments while echoing both the chromatic intensity of
the aurora and the illuminated mining landscape surrounding the city. […]

16/07/2026

[…] Processes of extraction and transformation recur elsewhere in Heide Nord’s hand-grown crystal works. Here, the logic of mining is subtly reversed. Rather than excavating minerals from the earth, crystalline structures are slowly cultivated through chemical accretion and pigment, as though matter itself were patiently painted into existence. Presented through looping photographic projections, these unstable formations hover between scientific experiment, hallucination, and landscape image – suspended between growth and simulation, materiality and apparition. […]

[…] Prozesse der Extraktion und Transformation kehren in Heide Nords handgezüchteten Kristallarbeiten
wieder. Hier wird die Logik des Bergbaus subtil umgekehrt. Anstatt Mineralien aus der Erde zu fördern,
werden kristalline Strukturen durch chemische Akkretion und Pigment langsam kultiviert, als würde Materie selbst geduldig in die Existenz gemalt. Durch Fotoprojektionen in Endlosschleifen präsentiert, schweben diese instabilen Formationen zwischen wissenschaftlichem Experiment, Halluzination und Landschaftsbild – aufgehängt zwischen Wachstum und Simulation, Materialität und Erscheinung.

[…] During workshops focused on reading satellite data, the Heide Nord became fascinated by the strange reversal embedded within satellite vision: humanity observing itself from afar, translating landscapes into abstractions and measurable systems.

In Parallel Time, this logic materialises through a series of satellite images transferred onto metal sheets. From Kiruna, Heide Nord used satellites passing overhead to capture both the terrain beneath her feet and disturbances within the atmosphere above – dust particles and drifting cloud systems. At times fractured by static, blurred through repetition, or interrupted by technological noise, the images expose the instability hidden beneath supposedly objective systems of observation. Printed onto cold grey metal, the works make the remote tactile; surfaces become marked by transference, interference, delay, and the weight of
translation. […]

Heide Nord
Parallel Time
13.06.–18.07.2026

In certain versions of the tale, a trail of breadcrumbs scattered through the forest is replaced by small
white stones that reflect the moonlight. Unlike breadcrumbs – fragile markers consumed by animals and weather – the stones remain visible, guiding a path back through unfamiliar terrain. Acts of navigation
echo throughout Parallel Time: fragments gathered across time and situated within a landscape shaped by
instability and transformation.

For Heide Nord, Kiruna in northern Sweden became both a physical destination and a conceptual
threshold. Her engagement with the region began through earlier artistic research connected to Kirunatopia at Kunsthaus Dresden in 2014 and intensified following the 2023 discovery of vast rare earth deposits in the area. Initially, the artist describes her research as a form of disorientation – becoming lost within overlapping histories of mining, environmental change, Sámi resistance, and speculative futures. Gradually, however, a visual language emerged from these scattered materials. Parallel Time unfolds as the first chapter of this ongoing enquiry. […]

collezione grande 25.04.—30.05.2026

Three distinct visual languages, three different rhythms — yet a shared tension between material and space. Bea Meyer’s organic sensitivity, Katharina Immekus’ subtle structures, and Max Brück’s industrial minimalism create a compelling dialogue. Form, weight, repetition and silence unfold in different ways, while remaining quietly connected.
