Flaka Haliti’s (*1982, Prishtina, Kosovo) artistic practice includes mixed media, sculpture and spatial installation with a decidedly site-specific approach. Appropriation and re-arrangement are continuous lines in her works, whereby new aesthetic patterns are created.
She represented her home country Kosovo at the Venice Biennale in 2015. She
was a scholarship holder of the Villa Romana in Florence in 2017 and is
the recipient of the Ars Viva Prize. She completed her studies at the
College of Fine Arts, Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main and presented
her artistic work in individual exhibitions at the mumok – Museum
Moderne Kunst in Vienna, S.A.L.T.S. Kunstverein Birsfelden, Kunsthalle
Lingen and the Kunsthaus Hamburg and in group exhibitions at Museum
Ludwig Cologne, Kunsthalle Vienna and Lenbachhaus Munich, amongst
others.

The edition was exhibited and published as part of her solo exhibition at mumok Vienna in 2014. The text on the three posters starts the following:
„I tried to send you a message on your phone last nicht, read: `I picked a star from the sky for you – here it is – pling – in your hands, goodnight, kiss.“ but it did not go through – sending failed.`“
The kind of letter or text message continues over all three posters and – as the titel suggests – tells the feelings of somebody, who misses someone until this emotion stops.

Works by Flaka Haliti are part of international private and institutional collections, like Munich Re Art Collection, Sammlung Kontakt, Art Collection Telekom and Ludwig Museum Budapest.
