Adaptations

Adaptations
'Design is all around you, even in the most unlikely places. 'Adaptation' looks into the impact of design in everyday life.' Peacock, Aberdeen.

Together with Julie Peeters I selected a series of images from the archive 'Gestures'  and made a publication relating to the concept of Adaptation. For this exhibition I contributed a photofilm compiled out of a selection of 350 photographs relating to the notion 'Adaptation' Download  'Adaptations'  (pdf)

Gestures research
Examples of these gestures are found in the way that elements are adapted, concealed, demonstrated, mirrored, constructed, and so on. I systematically photographed how such modes of spatial organization could be investigated as gestures made to organize, maintain, or sometimes disrupt a certain order in our lifeworld. The focus on gestures gave form to an archiving of autonomous places that would only in the greater collection of photos establish relations with other places and gestures.
