Decoding dynamics of space … more

A subtle but very direct horizontal interference within a silent expanding space. An interference as just one gesture by sawing into the blue monochrome, opening up the tight boundaries of the geometrical square. — 34,5 x 4,5 cm
Price: 950 Eur

An intervention in a Dutch landscape. The mist of the blue cloud (Kersten threw blue chalk towards the horizon and took a photo) interferes and works with the bad quality JPG and its RGB pixels/dots. There’s a merging of immaterial to material and the other way around. — Unlimited edition with variable sizes.
Price: 220 Eur

An object loses its former function and has the capacity to become something different. The result makes references to the world of signes (the Ampersand - &-sign), and points out to how the Beugung of a word or sign changes its context, interpretations and overall meaning. — 35 x 24 x 20 cm
Price: 650 Eur

By sanding the aluminium sandwich plate on the left panel, a dark but very fine grey substance (dust) is produced that is placed on the right panel and becomes a monochrome. The left panel is a cloudy image which is ‘intrinsic’ as looking through a small window into the cloudy distance. The right panel – in contrary – is very physical and ‘here’ - as in close to the spectator - and not distant but present: it is defined mostly by its materiality. A diptych of these two elements denies the impression of a strong duality between the two. — 40 x 50 cm

HSD - Hic Sunt Dracones (here are dragons) - stems from the original ‘Hic Sunt Leones’ (here are lions), a description used in ancient maps to describe an unfamiliar land – a terra incognita. The aluminium sandwich plate is a material that, when cut and folded, it relatively easy blends into the architecture of a space: a corner is a place where lines of a space connect, where there is a tension in space because of the connections that are made. The folded aluminium pieces let themselves be placed in unconventional ways and unconventional places within the exhibition space, creating a new space. They follow their own will, their own order. — 120 x 45 x 45 cm

Le fantôme réel is about the reality of the image and about the painting as an illusionary ‘window’ to a ‘another reality’. On the one hand the viewer is invited to look into the painting looking for depth, on the other hand the viewer’s gaze is pulled out of this invitation and is confronted with the physical aspects of the material. Here, dirt and marks of previous users/owners of the found material define the human-material network in time. — 60 x 75 cm

This object is exactly the length of its maker: 191,5cm. It is very material orientated, at the same time its shape is just a thin vertical line with a vanishing colour saturation from dark purple to grey and white. The industrial steel carrier on the back has holes in it, the colouring on wood on the front is painted in an organic beeswax mixed with pure pigments and spray paint. — 191 x 1,5 cm
Price: 1300 Eur

A printed drawing as a sketch for a new aluminium HSD piece. An edition of 30 questions the idea of authenticity as it’s not an unique piece. The viewer can’t find any personal gestures on it except for the gestures of the printing machine, but simultaneously the sketch is an authentic blueprint of an idea for a new physical work. — 29 x 35,5 cm
Edition of 30.
Price: 160 Eur

Aspects of physical (the pigmented wall plaster) merging with the immaterial ones ( environmental reflections into the glass are constantly changing). Duality of object and surroundings disappear: Capricious light reflection within the aluminium frame and brackets give a technical feel which, in combination with the glass, brings the whole into a context that raises questions about a progressive socio-technical order. — 72 x 51 cm

A still of an adjusting image. A painting about the chameleonic properties of the (art) object: - a status that does not mean that an object changes itself in order to connect or relate to its surroundings, but rather merges itself into other contexts and there for (partly) becomes something else. There is no fixity within an object’s being but dynamics. — 18 x 13,5 cm
