Welcome to the Playground (How the Performers Should Move into Space)
2017-2018

Welcome to the Playground serves as an invitation for the public/visitiors to participate in the artwork as if they were life-sized pawns of a board game. Beholders are invired to experiment with different objects. They are allowed to move through the space and use the objects that are displayed in the room. 

The work is accompanied by a video, that features as a user manual that explains visitors how to participate. One of the objects featured in the video is enlarged to a life-sized copy to make it accessible for the public. How the Performers Should Move into Space attempts to shed light on answers to questions such as to what extend do visitors voluntarily participate in a work of art? And how can an artist clarify to visitors that the work is accessible to participate in, without physically being present to explain this?





How the Performers Should Move into Space was on view during This Is Art Fair, Beurs van Berlage. On invitation of MILK.

Welcome to the Playground was on view during a solo exhibition at ‘t Oude Raadhuis, Beek en Donk.
