Artwork: I wanted to become someone so badly that I became no one I
If you almost do something very often, you have done it more than if you have never done it, and even more so if you have almost never done it, in which case you must have done it a few times.
I wanted to become someone so badly that I became no one II
To escape the constantly open mouth,
If only they would at least talk about God and money
They don't think about the fact that someone could spit in them, in their open things
For example:
I.
I wanted to become someone so badly that I became no one III
Because it might not happen. Like before, and before, and before, and before.
Four is not a nice number to not have landed.

Umetniško delo: Tako zelo sem si želela postati nekdo, da sem postala nihče I
Če nekaj skorajda počnete zelo pogosto, ste to storili večkrat, kot če tega nikdar ne bi storili, še toliko bolj, če tega skorajda nikdar niste storili, vendar pa ste v tem primeru to prav gotovo storili nekajkrat.
Tako zelo sem si želela postati nekdo, da sem postala nihče II
Da bi se izognili nenehno odprtim ustem,
ko bi vsaj govorili o bogu in denarju
ne razmišljajo o tem, da bi lahko nekdo pljunil vanje, v njihove odprte stvari,
denimo:
jaz.
Tako zelo sem si želela postati nekdo, da sem postala nihče III
Ker se morda ne bo zgodilo. Kot pred tem, in pred tem, in pred tem, in pred tem.
Štiri ni lepo število, da ne bi pristalo.

It is not just a brief moment of touch that is being performed, but rather a pointing to the already always touched-ness of materials, objects, and bodies that Lindenhofer and her works reflect. The possibility of a larger, stronger whole emerging from several individual parts is also evident in the titles of the works. They are part of the system of the individual objects, but do not name them; they instead open up another level of reflection on proximity, misunderstanding, disorientation, community, and work. (Inga Charlotte Thiele, 2023)
Juliana Lindenhofer, born in 1987 in Graz, Austria, lives and works in Vienna, where she graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. In her drawings, sculptures, work titles, and DJ sets, she searches for a rewriting of normative anatomies, alternatives to patriarchal family models, and a fraying into space without powerful gestures. Club culture and nightlife are her first and continuous inspiration, providing a space for misunderstandings, experimentation, and self-fashioning.

Ne gre le za kratek trenutek dotika, temveč za poudarjanje konstantne dotakljivosti materialov, objektov in teles – to je tema umetniških del Juliane Lindenhofer. Možnost, da iz več posamičnih delov nastane večja, močnejša celota, je razvidna tudi iz naslovov njenih del. Ta so del sistema posameznih objektov, a ne poimenujte jih; namesto tega odpirajo drugo raven refleksije bližine, nerazumevanja, dezorientacije, skupnosti in dela. (Inga Charlotte Thiele, 2023)
Juliana Lindenhofer, rojena leta 1987 v Gradcu v Avstriji, živi in dela na Dunaju, kjer je diplomirala na Akademiji za likovno umetnost. V svojih risbah, skulpturah, naslovih del in didžejevskih setih se zavzema za preoblikovanje normativnih anatomij, za alternative patriarhalnim modelom družine in vstopanje v prostore brez nasilnih gest. Klubska kultura in nočno življenje sta njen prvi in stalni navdih, predstavljata ji prostor nesporazumov, eksperimentiranja in samooblikovanja.
