More felt testing
Feb 19, 2009

I want to make felt that thin, you can see through and will be strong enough to hang into the folding screen. And now i have to decide if there are 'ghosts' comming out of my screen. My tests feel very kitsch. So I'm thinking to make just the hairfelt fabric, which looks very cool but more design that visual art.

Oranda -e (met Hollandse ogen)

Exhibition 'Japan' in april at galery 'Kunstcentrum Haagweg 4' in Leiden.
30 Artist will work with a 'folding screen' or byobu, solving the question " Does my work present space or does my work take space?"
'If walls could speak'
This is my plan (roughly) for my screen. I started to experiment with making felt again. I try to make big, but very transparant felt, which has 3 dimentional pieces coming out of it. The screen will be inhabited by 'gosts' which present stories about it's history.
