De Beperking van het Getal Kinders 24.10-9.11.2013

Three works I set up for the exhibition “De Beperking van het Getal Kinders” – curated by Tom Nys, Antwerp, Lokaal01.

– L’origine de l’état-providence (2013)

An image of Gustave Courbet’s l’origine du monde, glued to a piece of wood and pierced with a little hole, as to allow the wires of an actual IUD (intrauterine device) to pass through and function as a little socket to keep the image upright, then placed on a white socket under a glass dome

– het merg / the marrow (2013)

three antique baby scales, with three black wellness/massage stones

– and then what? (2011)

acrylic stamps of playing children on canvas, sewn into a little towel and hung on an antique bathroom towel rack, with a piece of sunlight soap & some crochet hooks
