For her upcoming first institutional solo exhibition Fine people on both sides, and me. at NAK Neuer Aachener Kunstverein in October 2023, artist Jody Korbach explores the idea of political and social belonging tied to the resulting conflicts as well as their possible healing. Following her artistic practice, Korbach draws on German history, pop culture and motifs. The artist’s contribution to the What the Flag?! project functions as a teaser for the exhibition at NAK, depicting a scene of acute awareness of all evil and suffering, the German idea of Weltschmerz. Jody Korbach (*1991 in Bielefeld, Germany) studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, where she graduated in 2017 as a master student under Christopher Williams. Korbach is currently living and working at the Bronner Residency in Tel Aviv, Israel.
