For the conceptual introduction of the Modeling I developd a special monograph. A meticulously crafted instrument consisting of several layers that represent different ideas applied in my work. Each layer, it’s material or colours also represent the cycles I performed to find a desired configuration (or a work if you will). The images that eventually appear in the monograph do
not reproduce any of the configurations created in the studio, but each choice you make, cycling through layers, 'constructing’ an image using, rather simulates my recording process. The monograph was initially designed for promotional purposes, providing a tangible insight and an introduction to my workingmethods, but within the Modeling series it has slowly come to be a work on and in itself. An idea of wich the Japanese concept of tsutsumi is a very suitable testimonial....
Epigram & instructions on how to use the monograph
”Every meticulously created object changes any offering into something that contains high symbolic value. Not because of it’s material vulnerability, but for it’s symbolic ritual. [..] Without actually opening it, the object already suggests the significance of it’s contents through the gentle and precise concealment of the packaging”
