Kommentar des Betreuers

"TAGGED! Stolen Things" is one of the very first artistic works applying RFID technology. And one of the most fascinating examples of how an artist can be inspired by technology and be critical to it, and narrate at the same time.

Kerstin has found very elegant technological and design solutions for the installation. She has written and staged funny and involving stories the audience can experience while interacting with it.

TAGGED was a final project, but was already shown at several events after and featured in design and art magazines. I would really recommend to take this work: it is deep, actual, looks very attractive in an exhibition space.
