Wall House


I exhibited in the Wall House of the Groninger Museum in 2018 from March 31 to June 3. The Wall House is a modernist building on the edge of the lake Hoornsemeer. This remarkable house was designed by the American architect John Quentin Hejduk (1929-2000). I got the chance to make a solo exhibition in the original living room. To get to know the space and find out what I wanted to create there I worked in the building in February and March. In the end, I decided to compete with the horizon and the wall, both of which threaten the abstract and boundless reality I create.


‘The Flux is resilient. The horizon and wall set boundaries and thus threaten this infinite reality, just like the disruption caused by buildings, traffic signs and constructed paths does. Additional lines offer new perspectives to which The Flux may relate, for example by considering the horizon as an illusion.’
