Description
Nothing happens for a reason
Fading, liquid-like lines traverse the space: an aesthetic like poured butter, a haptics like skin. The lacquer, colored, draws and sets itself.
The room-filling drawing, a rastering, is expansive and covers the entire room surface; it opens the space horizontally. On and between this drawing, the visitor stands, walks, moves, and gauges the space, the architecture, the place. Like on a playing field, they relate to the objects and to other visitors, who, in motion, position themselves in relation to themselves and to others.
