The word "God-e (t)" is phonetically reminiscent of the German-French use of „Ade!“ „Adieu!“ to herald the ritual of farewell. If the emphasis is shifted to the o and phonetically to English, „God-et" becomes a triumphant signal of understanding. The term "Godet", pronounced in French with Dutch roots, is a technical term from the tailoring trade and defines a wedge-shaped insert in a slit.
The title of the exhibition Godet, my friend! by Kathrin Köster and Sonja Schrader plays with the dance figure of farewell and triumph, which is expressed installation-wise in a juxtaposition of bodies, their spatial compression, as well as their energetic rearrangement.
