Little thing 

Still life in butter that was never really finished due to the outbreak of covid 19

I never took good pictures of this project. I made latex “casts” of the sculptures by Hildo Krop on Vierwindstrekenbrug, Amsterdam. The sculptures represent the four compass points. My casts were hung on metal scaffolds and placed in the room according to their respective compass point.

People were asked to draw something which they would like to carry with them at all times. At the end of the project they were given a laser cut MDF amulet based on their drawing.
