Collecting is a phenomenon celebrated not only by "official" collectors, but also by producers, artists and by nearly everyone. Who doesn't know the moment to stumble over something and to have that instant feeling that this specific object could be important to something coming up in the future? taking it home and storing it for the actual case of "the right moment". Especially in a studio things can become an important part to fill the surrounding of the actual production. But sometimes they are becoming a source of a constant state of undecidednes. In some special moments this turns into something called "inspiration". THE MUSEUM OF UNSOLVED THINGS is a display for this kind of objects. It celebrates this preliminary moment, in which a special kind of potential can be kept inherent to the object in its not yet defined state. |

The exhibition was extended by donations of broken things by visitors which stayed in JUST ANOTHER ART FOR LIFE EXPERIENCE. and left something for the MOUT. For example the following wax model for a jewelry cast by the designer Nora Rochel, an open lock by an unknown guest and a hat by the Butoh dancer Santeri Vikström (which found its place on top of the unsolved column of Sandra Gomez). |
