For me, this is, in a way, the work that culminates the series of works presented at Op Enheim.

The object is an interpretation of the silhouette of an ancient urn. The word urn comes from from Latin ūrō, which means to burn. Using the symbolic as well as the etymological meaning allows me to uncompromisingly refer to present living climate crisis. The significant enlargement of a usually small vessel transforms it into a monument. Monuments for me are places itself. This process allows me to project the scale and ambiguity of the current living situation. Derived from the need to create a vessel, that could preserve all unfulfilled dreams and visions of the world. 

Juxtaposing certainty and uncertainty, with the association of stability.  The authenticity and safety of places are disappearing, and the uncertainty of the future has permanently crept into our everyday life. Haute vulgarisation no longer impresses anyone as we’re so quick to forget the messages given to us.

Inspired by Terry Eagleton's words "True critical judgment it is not the fruit of spiritual isolation, but of vigorous impact with the inner life."(1985) I would like to move the viewer to reflect on consolidating their own trace of existence with a new reality in mind.
