He shows me his works, his mostly homemade tools, his four copper hammers, his love for Brancusi and Chillida. He asks, advises, wanders through his studio looking for examples, shows me his ways of welding. We come to talk about today's Berlin, about stores that may or may not be there anymore, about Colony Wedding (www.koloniewedding.de). And we close with a pint of his self-fired Mirabelles liqueur DC13 (Destilleria Clandestina 2013).
