I Did It

Astrid Heibach offers a fictional and humorous portrayal of the hyperbolic reality of the “American way of life” using the famous New York City Marathon as an example. The artist herself embodies a woman who comes to the United States to fulfill her parents’ instruction to give everything and make the best of herself. By incorporating excerpts from conversations with residents of the city and historical references, the popular myth is constantly critically scrutinized.
