In her work Ninakarlin Prinz mainly uses building and construction supplies, such as wood, MDF, neons, rubber, which she occasionally manipulates with paint or with manual intervention. Ninakarlin Prinz's pieces are modules composed of stable and free elements, which take shape before being installed in the exhibition space and in the different contexts. The open, fragmentary structure of these rooms, the apparently unfinished frames and on an improvised basis, the interior constructions become iconological elements, which artists often use simultaneously for several works.
This net of interaction is transferred to the current presentation with its conglomeration of objects lying, standing, suspended in space. In The Tale of A Book I've Never Read (page 17) foods such as sugar and chocolate appear and this emphasizes the unstable character of the installation and adds Georg Herold's "Mountain of Cocaine" and Dieter Roth's pieces of chocolate to the multiplicity of art historical references in the work of Ninakarlin Prinz.
