Hiddensee is a car-free island in the Baltic Sea, located west of Germany's largest island, Rügen, on the German coast.

The island is located at 54°33' north 13°07' east, and has about 1,300 inhabitants. It was a popular holiday destination for East German tourists during German Democratic Republic (GDR) times and continues to attract tourists today with its natural beauty. It is the location of the University of Greifswald's ornithological station. Gerhart Hauptmann and Walter Felsenstein are buried there.

Hiddensee is about 16.8 kilometres long, about 250 metres wide at its narrowest point and about 3.7 kilometres wide at its broadest point. It is the largest island with the Western Pomerania Lagoon Area National Park and belongs to the district of Vorpommern-Rügen in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

Exhibition Review - Marie Jeschke:'Can't Remember Always Always' l’étrangère, London till 5th March 2016.

With Jeschke, I tug at crumpled fossils,

plots drawn from a moving landscape

to tease out the betrayal of memory. - Drenched Co.

Comment: "In her fresh and well put together little show at l’étrangère, Jeschke alludes to the altering of memory through cultural and natural effects over time. To me, Jeschke's work also suggests how a changing reference system of a given culture changes what we see and how we see. As codes of memories change, we cease to notice or alter the way we see certain elements in our environment. As well as being unreliable, memory is selective. For me, Jeschke wants us to consider how time and culture teaches us what to remember and what to ignore. I loved her aluminium totem-like sculptures." - FaSa
