LARPGROUND is a project by Max K Super, Kiarer Kristler and Yan Chmarau. It focuses on the ephemeral
nature of childhood and youth while giving the viewer a glimpse of what the trio thinks of aesthetically when speaking about
youth and looking towards a bright, colorful future unlike the one outlined in the text above. Eight pictures are the centerpiece
of the installation. The Speedshow Series is an exhibition format of the University of Applied Arts Vienna, curated at the
Digitale Kunst Department / UBERMORGEN. In cooperation with MuseumsQuartier. Episode 8 features works by Max K Super, Kiarer
Kristler and Yan Chmarau, studying at the Digitale Kunst Department.
