Have you ever asked yourself why? Why the impulse comes before the pause, why the mouth says "sorry" before the body knows what for. As if my presence arrived too loud, as if taking up space needs to be justified before I even enter the room. I retrace my words like footprints in wet sand, soft, uncertain, already disappearing. Do I speak too much?

Do you know the kids book: ‘’Guess how much I love you’’?
In my language ‘’Raad eens hoeveel ik van je hou’’,
and in your language ‘’Weisst du eigentlich, wie lieb ich dich hab’’.
It was one of my favourite books when I was a kid.
Everytime I love something or someone, I associate it with visual length.
From point A, to point B.

Heavy Foldable Table is an exhibition of the volunteers who usually work behind the scenes at Club Solo and make the exhibitions possible. In addition to being volunteers, they are artists themselves. For this exhibition they bring their own thoughts and ideas to Club Solo. What shapes do they take?

In the work counting the days, I sorted together with the audience bread clips from 2015 till 2020 by date. First by year, then by month, then by day. At first glance, it’s not immediately clear that the bread clips are arranged by date. The dates that are missing are filled in with an empty placeholder, a kind of gap in time. The dates that appear more than once are carefully placed side by side. A repetition occurs.

In July, during my stay in Stuttgart, I wrote a text about sharing an apple. I shared that apple with Bea and Noor, with whom I worked closely for two weeks. It was a meaningful moment, a small ritual I wanted to capture. Later, I rewrote the text for a performance with Luca in August, which gave the memory and the original moment a new layer. Then again, in October, I combined the two texts and shared an apple with my class, allowing the story and the experience to develop and transform once more.
