On site in Vilnius, Lithuania, I came across the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. During the Soviet occupation the Sisters of the Visitandines left the convent and the state authorities opened a prison in the buildings. On the inside the church itself was no longer visible after the prison had left in 2007.
During 2008 – 2010 I developed this site-specific Art Installation as well as exhibitions and performances for Vilnius as the European Capital of Culture of 2009. This project was carried out in collaboration with Marie-Françoise Stewart-Ebel, Brussels, while we investigated the relationship between art and culture.

In all areas of society and cultural life we collect information in different forms of digital media. The organisers of Digitales, a transdisciplinary project and recurrent event, were faced with quantities of traces, texts, images and sounds produced in different forms of media, of which they wanted to make a "biography", a memory, a living archive.
