Reads Like a Book, 2018

installation

For Reads like a Book, my current project, I am focussing on the way in which (non-existent) spaces and places are expressed in text and in books. For example, I’m examining the way in which a book can function as a map for a non-existent world, or how the description of a place can function as a metaphor.

In the installation I made in Kunstliefde, I combined various found texts and books with my own attempts to grasp a space in language. This resulted in an installation in which performances and a series of paintings were combined.

In the installation I made at Garage Rotterdam I chose to only show the series of paintings.
