I fold my Bread 2019/2020 Video, 11:33 min
Es ist ein Video über einen wichtigen Teil meiner Arbeit: Brot. Ich falte ein sehr dünnes arabisches Fladenbrot wie ein Bettlaken. Das Falten erfolgt in vier Schritten, auch der Bildschirm wird viermal geteilt.
Dieses Video ist eine Hommage an Dora Maurer, im speziellen zu einer ihrer Videoarbeiten aus den 1970er Jahren.

really lecker, 2018
Foam, plastic, metal, paper, bread / 100 cm x 120 cm x 200 cm
Korean restaurants present showcases of fake food. Intended for viewing before ordering.
I playfully connect the Korean with the European culture.
I present pastry food, bread made of foam ... and a real one.
This was a four-week residency project in collaboration with the Hansung University Seoul / South Korea and the Bosslet class of the Dresden University of Fine Arts.
We worked in Seoul for three weeks with a subsequent exhibition week.

Burger-Porn, 2015
Video, 09:15 min
You see me eating a hamburger. On the side, I'm watching a porn video on my smartphone.
So simple! No more and no less!
It´s a fact! No emotions!
The food is not more important than the film!
It's my homage to Pop Art and Andy Warhol, but with a current time reference!

Daniel Grams is passionate about food and baking artistic, experimental bread.
"Eating is a necessity, but savouring is an art." - Francois de la Rochefoucauld
The important Topic in his work are Food, Enjoyment / Savouring (of Food, Music, Nature), Foodindustry and Society. His exploration of food can be seen in drawings, videos, experienced in sculptures or even enjoyed audibly.
Sound compositions are important to him and his work. Sounds from the kitchen, cooking, eating - the process itself, nature and human habitats.
"In this context, I am particularly interested in society and food, how do we deal with this, our 'cultural asset'? How important is food today, in the age of Facebook and Instagram? Society in the digital transformation."
