We live in times of constant transition, where traditional structures are demolished, making space for new forms and ideas. We live in ‘liquid times’, as Zygmunt Bauman so nicely puts it, ‘where the world changes so fast that there is no time for new traditions to arise’.
The spontaneous natural growth is so often substituted by technical and economic developments that designs and dominates our environment. But are these development also human development? We construct buildings in which we literally surpass ourselves. The mirroring glass of sky-scraping buildings avoids a change of engaging. With our heads in the clouds and one eye on the watch we make plans how to build bigger, reach higher and speed up, exploiting the environment and utilizing ourselves. Following the tendency, in this speed, what valuable things do we surpass? Time is a factor. Delay seems a necessity in order to avoid growing pains.
This tendency of ‘growth’ and efficiency seems to contradicts our wish for contemplation, being in the moment, a delay. There is a wish to explore the potential of the unknown. To make a freefall, discover the unnamed, what’s beyond the pale. On the other hand, we intent to hold on to the conventional and the familiar – traditions, solid structures. Can they co-exist?
Via sculptures, installations, collages, I am exploring those tendencies/wishes, and reflect on what I experience as ‘forces’ pulling in opposite directions. I am not searching for balance, but rather report on the tension or disbalance I sense. Growing up in the countryside surely formed my perspective.
My working-method and use of material support my ideas directly. The high ‘hand-made’ factor and a slow production process breaths a plea for delay. Sensible glass, textile and ceramics are combined with rough materials such as metal and concrete, of a more industrial character. Architectural shapes are often used as a metaphore. Structures and rules are created and broken, expectations created and twisted, works seem to burst, fall out of balance.
My work is a result of a visual analyses of this time. I hope to challenge the viewer in questioning his position in the ongoing changes that surround him.
