Alexandre Berthier and Karl-Otto von Oertzen collaborate together as the Marswalkers since 2000. Working with a broad spectrum of media, they produce works ranging from large scale video and sound installations, to photographies or silk screen prints or vinyls.
Most of their works question the gap that can be witnessed between the perception and the description of a given reality. Therefore many of their works play with perception thresholds, illusions and are often made in situ.
Most of their works are to be experienced in the place they are produced in, their documentation barely transcribing the spectator’s experience.
