Description:
Een lekkage in de Kunsthal, Rotterdam. 150 paar laarzen druppelen water door een roostervloer op een lemen beeld, een verdieping beneden.
A large group of visitors or 150 pairs of boots filled with water are leaking water through a metal grate-floor on a meeting table, made out of loam. The leaking slowly transforms the loam- sculpture downstairs into a delta landscape.
Looking up through the grate floor ceiling one can see a crowd of boots . The installation downstairs is placed in a large water-bassin.
The large grate-floor in the Kunsthal, notorious for its transparent construction, was the inspiration for the leakage.
In collaboration with: Jean Bernard Koeman.
