In Lobeda, the artist's book from 2010, Sabine Moritz remembers her childhood in a prefab housing estate near Jena in 95 pencil drawings. The Neulobeda district is a densely populated area characterised by high-rise concrete buildings and modernist urban planning. This urban landscape was to have a profound effect on the young Moritz, which would later manifest itself in her work. While studying at the Offenbach University of Art and Design, Moritz began drawing her memories of Lobeda. The first body of her drawings from the early 1990s is published here.
