A sparkling fountain busting out of a just opened bottle of champaign. A special moment. A moment of joy, of celebration, of bubbling over, of exuberance, exhilaration, inebriation, flush, ecstasy.
Origin of the work Fountain was the wish to retain such moment or in a continual repetition extend it ad infinitum.
Material and form of the Fountain stand in opposite to the associated decadence of the champaign: MDF, a quadratic cube of glass, a pump of stainless steel. One can see the technical mode of formation of the fountain. Thereby it refers to the wishes inherent inconvertibility – as the soft splashing sound and the sparkling smell of the champaign spread out in the room.

On the road. Alone. At night. The nocturnal black space remains indefinite. Unable to estimate distance. Time passes slowly through this monotony of images and sounds. The similarity of every parking lot is an experience of spacelessness. Unidentified waiting. A journey. A feeling. No visable goal.

In »what happened will be next?« the spectator is equipped with a movie camera and headphones. While walking a delineated circuit through the buildings of the ESAD school, they simultaneously view a video of the same route on the camera screen.The ‘duplicating’ of the reality creates a feeling of uncertainty. What happens when reality seems to be in the state of simulation? What is real? I developed this work during my stay at the ESAD in Caldas da Rainha, Portugal. The work also deals with how we process orientation, both in general terms and in regards to being in a foreign culture.

installation, (ropes, screws, gambrels)

(i want to settle down myself. i’m enmeshing myself in the space; i’m weaving a net, thin white lines against the massiveness of the space. i need to find a way to mount the ropes, to reach the ceiling. my entire bodily power against the ferro concrete.) The spectators can walk around and inside the installation. The different perspectives enable a variety of diverse impressions.
