Ugo Dossi's interest is in the subconscious, super-reality and the endeavor to make the universal imagery of the subconscious visible. In doing so, he uses the brain's ability to save and retrieve images. He was stimulated by the teachings of Wilhelm Reich as well as Sigmund Freud . He was also inspired by the Fluxus movement, especially the works of George Brecht and Robert Filliou , but also the neo-surrealist object art of Edward Kienholz and the works of Nouveau Realisme by Daniel Spoerri . Ugo Dossi initially created rooms from printed, serial parts that were supposed to make the view into the imaginary interior of the subconscious visible. After initial experiments with language in the form of associations and color in the "Schlieren images" from 1969, developed Ugo Dossi's "functional sculpture" and "tools" such as the "Sensograph" with the unconscious sensorimotor be translated into drawings could . In 1999 he created the "Fluidum Machine". The form of the automatic drawings, with which images from the subconscious are made visible, is strongly reminiscent of surrealist automatism . With hypnosis and trance , Ugo Dossi gets his helpers in working groups to reveal images from their subconscious. The aids he used, such as the “functional sculpture”, eventually turned into independent sculptures. With the help of installations of light, laser, video and subliminal projections, such as short, barely perceptible fade-ins that are stored in the subconscious, he reproduced images in order to penetrate again into the subconscious of the viewer. Ugo Dossi's most important artistic elements are installations that work with the media of video and projection. He is heavily involved with the subjects of art / science, subconscious and art / chess. In 1987 he took part in Documenta 8 in Kassel. 1987 showed the installation “Brennender Busch” at Documenta 8 in Kassel , 1987 (installation with image projection, approx. 5 m × 8 m), which the artist called “Perception Experiment” . A real bush served in a dark environment as a projection body for extremely short-term image projections lasting only a few hundredths of a second ("strotoscopic image injections"), which "remain invisible to the eye, but are perceived and stored by the subconscious. [...] The installation 'burning bush' is the carrier for Dossi's subliminal projections and a framework for the archaic associations that are triggered. "

Dossi lives and works in Munich and Berlin .
