„YFD“ Gallery Zilbermann
Delving not only to the consciousness of the human brain but also to the bodily part Thamulus, which works as a transformer between senses, the sculptural installation Yabba - dabba dooooooooo, delves into the ambivalence and vulnerability of human emotions. The artwork that consists of three separate layers symbolizes chambers of spaces for reflection, affect, and intimacy. Tuffner posits that despite cultural emphasis on uniqueness, our inherent nature drives a search for connection, seeking comfort in familiar sensory inputs and collective instances. Through these "echo chambers" of veiled information, Tuffner aims to illuminate the hidden, making visible the symbolic spaces of meaning that resonate deeply within us.
