During his first stay in Burgbrohl Schamp has extended its probe into the "Edible city" Andernach, another Station of the MYTH GRILL to build. For the MYTH of the GRILL in the "Edible city" wanted to Matthias Schamp delving deep into the cultural history of the potato. Coronavirus foiled this plan for the time being, but at the end of 2021 Matthias Schamp was able to realize, then, "the MYTH of THE GRILL GOES chamber of WONDERS".

His art action BAD HIDING was able to perform Matthias Schamp Corona-independent in Burgbrohl. This action, he can do alone, without the Participation of other people. But in the end, people will still be in the action. Then, when the Polaroid-documented bad hiding places add up to a very special "Ortsporträt" together.

There are many good, Bad places to hide. Matthias Schamp claimed: "to hide bad, is a radical Failure as a method. I understand it as a kind of cure. In a world where success is the measure of all things, it is incredibly beneficial, an action does NOT get added, which could even the last idiot with no effort. Try it out. Whether in the workplace or at home. You will realize how comfortable this is and how many friends you win this.“ He derives the claim: "No public construction without the secret nooks and corners! No room without a wrinkle! No place without cookies! People play more Hide and seek!“
