creates a swarm of light and sound; a combination of chaos and precision, appearance and intention. →

Red Horizon

Derives from the ideas of the mathematician and philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716) who assumed that the universe consists of “monads”, invisible elementary particles equipped with a certain degree of consciousness. →

The Monads

The neighborhood is alive, it is a collection of various conscious and unconscious stimuli and reactions to them. →

Symbiotic Spaces

investigates the dynamics between air particles as a dynamic ecosystem where the visitor travels through different altitudes of an artificial atmosphere above the Goffertpark in Nijmegen. →

Airborne Landscapes

is a generative virtual environment based on the urban space around Paradiso in Amsterdam that is influenced in real time by weather conditions and the day and night rhythms of physical reality. →

Every day we are surrounded by machines and technological systems that have their own internal clocks. →

If/Then

reflects on Stockholm’s ever changing urban landscapes and on the complex relationships between man-made, technology and nature. →

Flowing Grounds

A sensory installation that explores sensuality in terms of behaviors, phenomena and possible qualities without their relying on cultural codes. →

A kinetic/light/sound installation based on a subjective interpretation of sound traveling through space. →

Symbiotic Spaces

The neighborhood is alive, it is a collection of various conscious and unconscious stimuli and reactions to them. Symbiotic Spaces is a site specific installation for three window vitrines that reacts to sensory impulses of the Bellamy neighborhood in Amsterdam.

The work is inspired by air currents of the wind and how they are defined by the surrounding architecture.
The environment was characterized by its constant change through renovation and construction work during the period of the project’s development and the exhibition.
A series of tactile kinetic objects build a bridge between the natural and built environment through the different rhythms of breathing, sleeping and swinging.
