"One bed, two blankets" is the first collaboration between the artist couple Sabine Hess and Nicolas Polli, which was the initiated by a residency in Valle Verzasca. Living before in a long distance relationship, the residency served as a background to test the idea of living together for the first time, coming back to the place where they initially met. In a humorous and experimental way, the two artists play with norms and ideas surrounding their perception of a "relationship", giving themselves the freedom to create a vulnerable body of work. Embedded in the surrounding of the valley, they confront both the human and creative aspects of living together as a couple. The viewer is invited to enter their new home: A place that, similarly to their relationship, is still in transformation and adaption. A selection of texts are part of the work – they are findings by the artists that reflect on the challenges they experienced during their first time living together. A set of rules of how to navigate a life as a couple but also a personal manifesto of how to grow together.
