TWO (2) sculptures are hidden around BERLIN.
They include: 

A Self Portrait
A Bird w/Mirrors

This game runs in conjunction with my 5-day pop-up art exhibition with Nellie King Solomon, opening June 28, 2023 at the Changing Room, Berlin.  

The cookie sculptures are my take on old Slovonian Licitars from my childhood.
Although, technically they are edible -- I don't recommend it.
Historically they're meant to be decorative keepsakes. 

Hurry before they get broken… or eaten. 


finders keepers
(i.e. if you find one, you get to keep it. )


Clues Below Ground Rules

Ground Rules

1. It's a cookie inside of a bubble wrap package. Please don't take anything else. 
2. Please be respectful of your surroundings. Most places/homes/businesses have no idea that I’ve hidden a sculpture near them. So please help keep me out of trouble. 
3. If you happen upon a business or establishment near a hiding spot, please buy something and support local neighborhood small businesses. 
4. ​For those sculptures that are proving difficult to find, I'll provide additional clues/hints approx every 24 hours.  
5. I will remove all unfound sculptures on July 2, 2023. 
6. If you find one, post a pic to Instagram and tag me @danielasobermanstudio
7. Play nicely. :)

Two sculptures, less than 1 ft in any direction. Each hidden under a plastic container. 

1. Childhood’s pit of dares, daredevil’s den,
   cache of keeps and losses, teases, thrills--
   a creep of outdoor damp in the flaking walls,
   a broken concrete floor caking to soil.
   Open the door a crack and you smell it still,
   below-stairs air, too near, too close to home.

    ― Angela Leighton

1. “There is only one way to understand a lonely bench in a park: Sit on it; watch whatever it is watching; ”
