„The Origin“ is a two-parted project done by the artists Alice Wonder, Clara Mercedes Schaaf and Berit Frøysland.

Each of those artists uses their own medium and their artwork to analyze and explore the question about their inner self.

The second part is the correlation between Alice Wonder and Clara Mercedes Schaaf. With her work Clara acts as a second layer. She interferes with the symbiosis of Berit and Alice and creates a new one.

Being the last medium, Clara‘s linocuts are a restriction to the others but at the same time the artists form a new bonding and their work merges together.

So who are we and who could we be in life without any form of borders? And does individual freedom automatically set boundaries towards others?
