Äned am Bärg (Yonderland)
Red and Blue move through the rooms of a secluded house beyond the Swiss mountains, following the quiet rhythms of their days, waiting—for her, for something to happen, for time to move. But time lingers, folds, repeats. The house is not a home but a residue, an echo of past lives, past desires, past rehearsals of belonging. It is not a place of transition but of repetition, an architecture of disappearance where presence and absence collapse into one. Set against a hauntingly still landscape, Äned am Bärg (Yonderland) blurs the line between reality and memory, expectation and loss. Through dreamlike imagery and enigmatic interactions, it explores the weight of waiting, the unraveling of identity, and queerness as a state of suspension—a refusal to arrive.
