Tobias Regensburger's fantastic world manifests itself in a variety of forms. His room-dominating installations, machine-like sculptures, objects reminiscent of furniture, constructions made from small parts and futuristic drawings are characterized by unconstrained creativity. The basic materials used for his technological visions can be found in everyday situations; things that are taken out of their normal context and integrated into new sensory relationships.

The exhibition focuses on themes essential to survival. It reflects our expectations for the future as they are associated with a clinically pure, technoid world. With his mechanical constructions, Regenburger graphically depicts the fetishism of technology. He explores the fantastic free space between the pure materiality of a machine, its inner processes, and concrete output.
 
Regenburger's objects and installations are also on display in museums located in Flensburg and Kiel, Germany.
