ADVANCED SIT-PIT 2012-2015
VOORUITGESCHOVEN ZITKUIP
• The Advanced-Pit offers a dwelling place for up to 30 people.
One aspect of my work is the monumentalisation of a thin concept;
in this case 30 people lifted up a bit from their surrounding landscape, with a 360º perspective view outwards and inwards to themselves. The work has been constructed and developed in my atelier without hard deadlines, with different parts of the work well detailed; the steel frame, the woodworks, formfinding of the canvas, the sewing.
In this way, the different works develop in my studio with enjoyment.
