What are the b-sides? Are they models of extravagant rooms with a rooms with a wobbly depth effect? Or visually confusing illustrations? Printed on the back of a package? Are these things illustrated objects orobject-like images? As it is so often the case with the artistic work of Stefanie Pürschler, the works have a strange hybrid character. They are three-dimensional, functional objects (more precisely, they are the cardboard boxes of various consumer goods from chocolates to pizza), which, after an excursion into bi-dimensionality (in the printing process), get a new,…
