tatsuo miyajama: numbers as movement & change
tatsuo miyajima (*1957, japan) has focused on time since the 1980s. his diverse work started with performances, solidified as he began to make sculptural installations, and then changed again with his public projects, such as pile up life, and his wall installations, such as warp time with warp self, no. 2. despite the variations, miyajima’s work is immediately recognizable. the leds comprising an installation – sometimes as many as 1000 different lights – show various, predetermined speeds. counting, he claims, gives one the feeling of “‘the passage of time,’ a ‘rhythm by counting speed.’” each countdown or enumeration of numbers represents the life of an individual. the variations simulate the differences between individual lives: some people’s lives last 100 years; others “die” young.

rotor: grindbakken
when architecture practice oma's new masterplan for ghent's docklands becomes a reality, many existing buildings will be replaced and new activities and residents will make the area their new home.
before this happens though, belgian creative collective rotor have stepped in to present their own interpretation of the changing neighbourhood with an exhibition in one of its abandoned warehouses, the grindbakken.

caecilia metella: abstract architectural / archaeological details
for many years I took detailed images of classical archaeological monuments and baroque buildings of various kinds, some of which have been used in guidebooks and academic publications. one day I stumbled across the world of abstract photography and I have stayed in that world and been fascinated by it ever since.
