Statement

NBDBKP are Niels Betori Diehl and Barbara K. Prokop. They make art because of the way they think. They work together because they have found fighting and disagreeing to be productive. Not everything they do is art, but everything they do is influenced by their being artists. Their practice is a critical practice based on constant re-examination and readjustment. It is understood as an ongoing exercise. NBDBKP is a balancing act between formal strictness and an openness towards all that is and was before. A variety of media are employed, and each one is played out against itself. Sometimes a medium can be the audience of an institution or the work of other artists.
