For this exhibition, Esser developed a formation of vertical, handcrafted sculptures. Each one of them is a record of the process of making, captured in vertical form. The sculptures consist of a ceramic cell structure with electronic elements. A subtle play of light and sound plays through and around the whimsical shapes, interacting with each other and its spectators. In developing this work, Esser was inspired by ‘The Witte Wieven’: folklore stories about paranormal activity around Lower Saxon burial mounds. ‘Witte Wieven’ were regarded as wise women who guarded the burial mounds and were believed to be seen dancing in the mist. These burial mounds were animated by the spirits of these wise women. Unlike the monotheistic belief systems in which the world of mind and body are separated, the animists believed that the spirits manifested in the physical world and hid in objects. Esser plays with the analogy of the animated object through electronic processes that take place in the sculptures. In a literal sense, Tomorrow’s Harvest can therefore be interpreted as an altar to these electronic processes to which we are exposed on a daily basis.
