Dear people,
For several years now I have been making and designing scrap sculptures that are made of only recycled materials (metal, wood, glass, stone, organic material, etc.) that are given a new purpose and life in this way.
In addition to this objective, all works are also finished in such a way that their haptic (by feel) can (will) be discovered. So instead of ‘DO NOT TOUTCH’ to the works of art, in our case it is desirable that people carefully go on a journey of discovery with their hands.
The works are therefore clean, free of burrs and without sharp edges and are waiting to be discovered by even more blind and partially sighted people.
As a creative person I have had the opportunity to contribute to various social projects in the past and will also like to pick up this commitment again.
During our EXPO in the Belfroy in Bruges, I was able to discover how some blind and partially sighted people were able to explore our sculptures and experience their pleasure during the voyage of discovery.
So hereby the question to numerous institutes for the blind in BE, DE and NL and so one – whether you see the opportunity to temporarily exhibit the sculptures in your buildings and make them accessible to your members. I would then like to do the necessary (build & install). I also invite my artist colleagues to participate (for free).
In our current summer exhibition in Lier, we will once again explicitly state that the Tumulus sculptures can be explored manually by everyone. Those who have been tagged or alerted by the hashtags (BP, FB & LI)– feel free to get in touch.
