From the preface by Roland Schöny:

„... While extensive field research, combined with explorations of countries in southern Africa, Central America, the USA, southern China or areas in there immediate Central European living environment play a crucial role in MACHFELD´s work, their concepts remain mostly media oriented and reflect established conventions of perception. Experimental film, advanced photography and interactive installations are among MACHFELD´s forms of expression as well as net art, sound and radio projects, performance and interventions in public space, based for example on graphic characters." [...]

To traverse the history of MACHFELD´s artistic work means to trigger towards different patterns of spatial information. Approaches to the various projects not only involve leaps between diverse genres and forms of expression. Above all, they demand the willingness to conceive boundary crossings and location changes. Several of their artistic positions make sense only against the backdrop of the local conditions and environments of their creation. To contemplate the art and the interventions of Sabine Maier and Michael Mastrototaro means to set out to attend a primarily nomadic and explorative mode of production.
