The world is a serious place these days. I try to find workarounds for this problem in my work. Experiments I have conducted have resulted in interactive and static works.

Some examples of interactive works are: fish can leave their natural habitat and free their mind, visitors in a museum can punch an art object, birds can eat and sit on an art object. Foam creeps into the street for people to play with. These have all been realized in public space.

An example of static works is an ongoing series of designs for roundabouts, these are not yet realized in public space. Imagine slowly passing a roundabout and seeing a pile of huge serious shiny shit. So far they are only proposals but one day …

Interactive and public space projects, selection:

The fish projects:
I made several vacuum works for fish where the fish are enabled to leave their natural habitat and swim around above the water level in a watch tower or watch float. They can look around and are even on eye level with humans.

Schauma
Foam project. Foam comes out of a wall and gradually creeps and spills into the street. People can
also pick up the foam and play with it.

M-eiland
Sculpture for birds.300 M-shaped loaves of bread were arranged as a tower in the middle of a river.
Birds could eat and sit on it.

Love Hate Punch
Interactive punching bag that responds to being hit, in the form of flashing light and sound.
