Mirror Stage revolves around a controversial intervention in the urban landscape of Berlin in recent years: the demolition of the GDR building Palast der Republik to make way for a reconstruction of the Prussian Berliner Schloss, which recently opened as the Humboldt Forum. The installation orchestrates a direct confrontation between the two buildings using two characteristic elements: a Prussian eagle from the facade of the Humboldt Forum faces its own mirror image reflected in a facade fragment of the Palast der Republik.
   The eagle is cast in plaster using the same mould that was used in the construction of the Humboldt Forum. The fragment of the Palast der Republik is recreated after drawings obtained from the German Federal Archives, employing the same materials used in the original building.

Mirror Stage was developed in the frame of a residency at the Martin Gropius Bau with the BPA // Berlin program for artists; curated by Boaz Levin and Anna-Lisa Scherfose. The work was supported by Villa Romana in Florence; the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz (KHI) and the Mondriaan Fund.
