When I first entered the exhibition, I felt some sort of chill down my spine. The atmosphere in the exhibition was a bit creepy to me. The blood, the dolls, and the faceless manikins made me a little scared and to add to that, there was some mysterious and chilling music playing. At one part of the music, I heard a woman humming, but it sounded like screaming to me.

The first piece that first caught my eye was the one to the right in a long, see through case. It had bottles of blood and also a random hand holding a bottle. This is not the only piece of art with blood in it. As I walked around, there were blood in others too. I noticed that there was a sofa with some blood on it. What I also noticed was that all the art pieces seemed out of place to me. There were random pieces that were placed together and I could not see what the connection was or the overall concept that Althoff was going for. For example, what happened to the two guys at the right side of the exhibition? My first thought was that they passed out from drinking because I saw cups on the table, but I overheard someone else saying that they were dead. Right next to them was a manikin with a pink-colored dress. What’s the connection between them?

After looking around at the artwork, one piece that definitely caught my eye was the drawing of a naked man with a large cut on his back. When I looked closer at the artwork, I realized that the man had a knife on his back and he was cutting himself. The drawing was also not in color. The man was drawn with a pen (to me) and it was on plain white paper. I thought that the man was crazy and also a bit scary because who would want to cut themselves? The man in the drawing made me question the significance of the artwork.
