These beings have fascinated me for a while. They are sophisticated and elegant. They have no eyes, nor hands or feet. But they existed before humans started swimming. What is the purpose of their existence?

ALARM art initiative celebrates its 20th anniversary with a group exhibition called 20 x 20 x 20.
For me a moment to look back at 1996, when I made an installation in which reality and imagination had to collide.



Now in 2014, the ideas are compressed. Results seem more simple and tangible.
But what happened exactly, I do not know yet.

work in progress - (Last Voyage) comes out autumn 2014

Three days after his departure appeared the cloud.
He wanted to show me that he enjoys it there.
It becomes a 'cahier' [with] his (Last Voyage) as I interpret his last thought about the big bang.
I owe him.
