siri’s artistic practice is characterized by an experimental, conceptual, and performative way of working and often uses the medium of the moving image, although other media are by no means
excluded. siri baden’s works are inspired by philosophical and social issues and inlcude themes such as (gender)identity, interpersonal relationships and being human.
Siri Baden and Leon Schäfer have dealt with fellow human beings. In doing so, they got to the bottom of the question of what those involved are looking for. The result is a patchwork of different approaches to this multifaceted, philosophical question presented in the form of a video work: SUCHE (2021). Interview-based sections and cinematic scenes, sometimes accompanied by music, make an irrepressible curiosity about life tangible. There doesn't seem
to be a simple answer to the question "what are you looking for in life" – rather, the video suggests that the answer to the question depends primarily on the stage of life.
