Schlange / Snake first appeared as part of a group of objects displayed on a glass shelf in Katharina Fritsch’s 2001 exhibition at Tate Modern in London. Since then, the snake has been a recurrent motif in her work, including a version more than five feet long in her outdoor sculpture Figurengruppe / Group of Figures (2006–08), in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. In Fritsch’s work the snake is a culturally and psychologically evocative symbol of shared fears and superstitions often expressed in religious stories, folk tales, and legends.

- Lost in reflexionBy Guillaume LachapelleLocated in Montreal, QuebecText by Terence Sharpe There is a moment in Andrei Tarkovsky’s Solaris (1972) when the character Hari commits suicide by drinking liquid oxygen. As she is not actually a human, but an artificial hybrid product of the mysterious planet and the protagonists’ memories, she heals rapidly and is alive again minutes later. Her choice to take her own life is poignant, seemingly the action of a being becoming aware of its hopeless infinitude. Her realization that while the men will die on the space station or elsewhere, her existence is that of immortality, a deeply alienating notion that causes her to seek her own destruction. The Montreal artist Guillaume Lachapelle has one work that prompts a sense of eternal alienation that echoes Hari’s tragedy. The work greets the viewer with a empty doorway flanked by clinically white bookshelves...Category
