Grijstinten en Halftonen – 2010
For the glass cabinet of the City Hall in Nijmegen I had developed a kinetic light installation, one of ten installations in the succession of De Nieuwe Kamer.
Behind translucent screens slightly different shadows of cullet are rising and declining.
De Nieuwe Kamer lies next to the monument for the victims of the accidentally Allied air raid during WW2. This installation refers to this history in an abstract way, imagining the infinite process of destruction and reconstruction.
