Interview “With my drawings I seek the dialogue with the urban space” Overlooked “I make sketches of people, observing their everyday movements in the city, which is my ultimate and inexhaustible source of inspiration. My observations of people during the day come back in the night as abstract memories. Just as weightless as they are in our memories, through projected light, I will make them reappear as part of the night”. Urban Space “The idea of the mobile part of “People of Day and Night” is to intervene with rhythm and structure of urban space, to give new meanings to the lines of the existing architecture and shed new light on old cracks in the sidewalks. I have worked with these issues for the last few years. Only until now never with light before! I’ve never been to Eindhoven before, so my work will reflect my honest and direct impression of the city. I have worked in public spaces before, but that was in cities which I more or less knew already, so to achieve an extensive project in a city which is completely strange to me is going to be an interesting and exciting challenge!” Ephemeral “The weightless images on the hard surfaces of architecture symbolize in many ways the dominance of stone-set structures. With the people removed, the city would just be a pile of hollow stones, yet the architecture is the lasting part to which we refer to when describing a city. Peoples presence is passing, people come and then go again. In time, but they also literally absorb in space. Streets more than ever are places of passage, where we all pass through but yet really quite far apart. By means of my drawings I would like to share these observations with other people and also to explore the connections between people and their environment. With my work I seek the dialogue with the urban space and those who inhabit it”.
