Work exhibited in the group show Notes On Our Equilibrium: A Dialogue with the House of Jean Prouvé II (2017) at Fondation CAB, Brussels.

Almost suddenly, a crumbling wall seems to give access to an- other reality, a hidden fictional landscape. This illusionary space appears in a context where it is unexpected and not supposed to exist.
A sight of wild nature that hasn’t gone through any analysis or clas- sification. Lush vegetation that hasn’t been subjected to mankind’s will but that has an agency of its own. Perhaps a creature made it by coming inside, perhaps someone discovered it accidentally by making a hole ?
