Roman Signer’s work evolves from scrupulously prepared sculptural events which take place either in the Swiss mountains where he lives or as site-specific installations which bear evidence of a past action. These "sculptural moments" involve a vocabulary of simple objects and materials such as balloons, bicycles, water and wood, activated by movement or material transformation. Signer thus creates a series of "successful fiascos", where the everyday world is revealed as something ambiguously amusing that can turn inscrutable and frightening.
