Tee’s work often consist of sculptural elements activated by performance that explore the relationship between spirit and matter, soul and body. For Manifesta, Tee chose to work with an undertaker. Inside the room at Enzenbühl Cemetery Tee has created an installation connecting sculptures and collages with ethnographic artifacts—objects from different cultures used in rituals surrounding death, burial, and the transition to the afterlife. In Löwenbräu, Tee is presenting a larger installation related to these topics.
Commissioned by Manifesta 11 with the generous support of the Mondriaan Fund.
