Phoenix

2019

Steel
Diverse measurements

The installation consists of two works Drop Hammer House and Phoenix – together harnessing the power of industrial processes in homage to the former Viennese working class neighborhood where the exhibition FOKUS FAVORITEN is taking place. Drop Hammer House quite literally smashes metal objects (including cars) into fodder for new products while Phoenix is a series of kilns used to cast iron, smoke fish, bake bread and incinerate waste, transforming detritus into new energy.

Phoenix (2019) was part of the following exhibition(s):
‘De Verleiding‘, Bosch Parade, ‘s Hertogenbosch (NL), 2022
‘House of Transition’, Fokus Favoriten, Vienna (AT), 2019 – 2020
‘Ferrotopia‘, NDSM, Amsterdam (NL), 2018
