For some time Sylvia Bernhardt has engaged herself with the phenomenon of ‚accumulation of attention‘ also as in the creation of images. Doing so she works under her own label Confetti. By a scheme well-tried already at „Medienmeile Mühlheim“ the artists invites citizens of Leipzig to, as Bernhardt says, „chatterbox around their bag“.

The medial complex work was created with the support of Leipzig´s daily newspaper LVZ. At its feuilleton Bernhardt presented a raffle about prominent citizens and their bags. Games and winnings lead the reader to the „ATTENTION!“ exhibition where they had to guess which bag and person belonged together.

In the showroom Bernhardt installed 10 colour portraits of citizens of different social backgrounds. The bags were presented in 10 glasscases standing in two rows. In front of the wall displaying the portraits a podium spotted in white light was the place where within a performance a specially hired moderator presented the winner a board game with the 10 persons and their bags.
