The collections of collaged, annotated and put together slides, shows two stages of the fort-like structure at Maarsseveen in an alternative historical path. Here we see what happens after the fulfillment of the defensive structure has come to a critical point. From destruction to an overgrown maze of twigs and bush, we get to see and read the diary of a post-historical traveler, trying to understand the structure by its present deformations. The work does visual and spatial agency on the importance of collapse as a state of renewal that is imperfect. The work is a visual collection inspired by the concept of anarchitecture, which suggests to make frequently visited places seen through, collapsed or indescribable.
Countless hours of working with film and tape, and self-destructive, spider-ridden projectors, accumulated in a new work which was placed in the armory of the waterlinie heritage site.
