Author Description

As a visual artist, Sebastian Jung (*1987) initiated the interdisciplinary project 'LOVE MOVEMENT' at the Theaterhaus Jena. In a think tank, he brings together bright minds from politics, punk, pop culture, literature, and academia for a populism against hate. In his manifesto, Jung propagates a love between two people that seems on the verge of failing. At the puerile venue of the 'Venus' erotic fair, he created a sensitive genre picture in 117 drawings. With handy photos and texts, Jung circles around our society and establishes links between its actors, ideas, and things. Artificial flowers, drawings, and texts address failed love relationships and juxtapose the political dimension of populism with a sensuous vulnerability.
