Installation View, Edition Populaire. 2014.
A collection/selection of works brought together in a space only visible from the street.
Most of the works were created with the impact of the view on/in streetlife.
‘Bread & Game’, (Baguettes, Anti-pigeon spikes, Varnish, Wooden Sticks.) 2014.
These breads were placed on wood that had the function to close the window against
uninvited people. The building supposed to host people with social needs. This function
disappeared and the building is empty. With the breads and anti-pigeon spikes on top the
general problem is explained in a different way.
‘Straatmeubilair Newspaper’, (4 color offset, 12pg, A3, 500 EX.) 2016.
This publication is similar with a newspaper and contains a selection of pictures of painted
furniture (garbage) on the streets of the Jewish Quarter in Antwerp were nowadays soldiers
are present to secure the Antwerp citizen. More information about the shown series of
pictures you can find underneath (‘Straatmeubilair’).
‘Straatmeubilair’, (Readymade, Spraypaint.) 2016.
In the Jewish quarter of Antwerp I painted a series of furniture that were abandoned,
actually a piece of garbage. After more than one year of camouflaged soldiers on the streets
of Antwerp I see them as a piece of street furniture (electricity cabin, traffic light...) because
we don’t care anymore, still, they walk around with big arms. Also the surrealistic image of a
person that should secure you, walking around in a camouflage costume in a grey city scene
brought me to this action(s).
‘’, (Plastic Sheet, Acrylic Paint, Rope.) 2016.
This panel is placed in the center of Athens. The word ‘’ means: ‘Depression’.
It is a word game with KATALIPSI wich means: Occupation. Offcourse there are a lot of
explanations for this work, but this for the observer.
