Temporary tattoos, original insert in QUART No. 46

February 2026

Inside Quart No. 46/25 there is an original insert by me, created in collaboration with my colleague, graphic design student Paula Wainig, which gets under your skin:

“The body is not only private, but always political. Temporary tattoos transform the skin into a politically readable and temporary field of experimentation for identity, belonging and social positioning – especially in turbulent times, this is an invitation to take a stand.”

“How quickly does belonging arise through symbols? To what extent does identity oscillate between self-perception and external attribution? How courageous am I – especially when it comes to politics?”

The Quart magazine for culture in Tyrol has been published biannually since 2003 with exclusive articles from the fields of fine arts, literature, architecture, music and design.
