Meine Geschichte

Laufer's "Meine Geschichte" is an artist book that reimagines passages from Fanny Lewald's 19th-century autobiography, "Meine Lebensgeschichte" (My Life Story), creating a new novelette. Using Lewald's original text as a unique source, Laufer cuts and rearranges passages to form an ensemble of annotated quotes, engaging in an obsessive dialogue with its source. The resulting novelette weaves through layers of life experience and time, offering a rhythmic portrayal of a moody 30-year-old woman.
