The concept for this exhibition was to bring 15 different artists (9 nationalities) that all lived and worked in Berlin, to Iran. We came to Teheran empty-handed and made an art piece out of our three-week experience. We were requested not to make any paintings, photo or video works because these medias dominate the Iranian contemporary art scene.

On one of our many trips to the bazaar, I found a shop in a narrow side street that sold jelly wax. This is a material most commonly used for extremely kitsch candles; but as raw material, it is clear, like frozen water.
