When Memories Become Dreams (2019-2020)

‘When Memories Become Dreams’ is een serie doka-afdrukken van beschadigde lantaarnplaatjes uit de collectie van het Zuid-Afrikahuis, Amsterdam. Door de afdrukken te manipuleren heb ik de vervorming door de tand des tijds willen verbeelden. In de doka veranderden de encyclopedische afbeeldingen in abstracte, bevreemdende beelden.

De expositie was onderdeel van het conservatie-, digitalisering- en publicatieproject Magic Visions, mede mogelijk gemaakt door de Gravin van Bylandt Stichting. Het project werd bekroond met de Mervyn Heard Award 2020.

Schnittserie (2019)

A little while back, I came into possession of a peculiar inheritance: over twenty ring binders filled with hundreds of yellowed pictures of actresses and fashion models. They had belonged to an elderly lady whom I never got to meet. She had carefully cut them out of 1950s feel-good magazine De Lach (‘the smile’), kept them for decades and finally put them all in ring binders towards the end of her life. I was in luck: careful not to damage the pictures, she had used small pieces of double-sided tape to keep them in place. Great collage material. But as I started peeling off the pictures, they became more than just that. Fascinated by the singular system of her collection, I decided to dissect it, laying bare its meanings, contexts, and materiality.
