“The exhibition Awake Are Only the Spirits – On Ghosts and Their Media is dedicated to a topic that appears, at first glance, timeless: the presence of the supernatural, the appearance of ghosts and (trans-)communication with ‘the beyond’ facilitated by technical media.” (HMKV)
I translated various short texts and the essay by Thibaut de Ruyter from German to English.
