‘Entering the backside of an art institute'
‘Jour fixe’ Factor 44, Antwerpen.
DVD 8 minutes

 

‘Lokaal 01’
Lokaal 01, Antwerpen
Video installation, Materials: construction plates, wood,
DVD 15 min in a loop.
Pavilion: length: 5m, height: 2,50 m, width: 2,50 m.

 

'Exhibition cupboard' , Moira, Utrecht.
Materials: wood, glass, sensors, 30 electro magnets.
Length: 350 cm, height: 250 cm, width: 60 cm. 

 A white cupboard with a front made out of glass is placed in the exhibition space. Inside the cupboard you will notice four fixed shelves with several electro magnets on different heights. The electro magnets start to move at certain moments and they tap with small metal pins on the huge front glass. The movement and the sound from the ticking pins create a tension between the cupboard and the viewer as it seems that the glass can break every moment.

 
 

 

‘Version 05’
 
‘A perfect present’ Theatre pavilion, Antwerpen.
Video-installation in collaboration with Leon Vranken.
Video-projection:  DVD  12 min in a loop.
Length: 3,70 m, height: 2m.


The video presents an image of a wall that is in continual transformation. Spots begin to appear, and for an unknown reason the spots begin to change while powder swirls out of the wall.

 
 

Artists Residence’
Spoor Noord, Antwerpen
Materials: construction plates, wood, neon lighting, plexiglass.
Height: 5,60 m, width: 2m on 2m.

The title of the work indicates the rather idealistic/conceptual context of its given destination: a residency for artists.
The residency is built 3.60 meter above the ground
and finds ittself on the border of an underdeveloped living area where the government tries to 'inject' some social economic projects: a park, recreation areas, and different possibilities for investment property. 
The tower emphasizes the distant character of the site and speaks more about disappearance than about connection.
