Afrikids 1
Basing myself on African Fetishes, I made soft and cuddly toyversions of the Motherland’s ancestors:
Children of Mama Africa ; Afrikids
Shadows of the Summer
Part of a publication for a year-report for Printer Lecturis:
Summer is not Fun , Summer Sucks!
I hope that's an inflatable crocodile!

Information-object Wereldmuseum Rotterdam
An object based on the phenomenon of carg0-culture. Native tribes of Papua New Guinea copy objects that they do not understand such as airplanes . They make lifesize copies made out of natural materials. This way I was similarly mesmerized by the phenomenon of korwars, a way to save the ancestral soul. Following the cargo-culture principal i made a copy , out of plexiglass with all the information on the object. Each object would be a copy of the real object , filled with different layers of information. Ranging from “a passing interest”to “studying the object”
