“Mass Re-Generator” Tool that generates volumes out of shadows, (in reverse). These volumes are then 3D printed on a glass plate using a controlled laser light point. With cameras and long shutter speeds, this “light painting” is then captured as a graphic output. (2D (shadow) > digital 3D volumes > 3D light painting > of which 2D graphics are printed. The machine can be considered  as a “pencil”, nothing more than a tool that I use to create “volume-drawings".

"Mass Re-generator" art installation (2024)  From shadow to mass (object) and from mass to 3D-light paintings. This machine generates possible volumes out of shadow planes. These volumes are then 3D-printed with a laserpoint and simultaneously captured by camera's with long shutter speed.

Scanning a route/traject from A to B through "space and time".  Space, time and movement cause distorted results. These digital 3D (4D)-images/point clouds are being 3D-printed as "earth shells". Negative moulds are made of them and bronze casted. Soon: ("earth shells". Futuristic and archaeological at the same time. (measurements 2.0m x 1.0m)

"_ 0,00000000499064255sec_"  A short film in which I follow my own shadow in an authistic way during 1 day, from sunrise to sunset.

No obstacle should  stop me from following my shadow. Various tools were also developed for this trip, such as "interceptor-01", "shadowtracer-01" & "artificial helio" (an artificial sun / shadow to get back to the starting point after sunset). Every half hour there was a stop for 2 minutes to measure its shadow, register the exact coordinates on earth and plant an oak tree. (during the whole day he planted a large linear forest). This is an introduction to a doctoral research (PhD) in the arts.

"a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead"  (spatial installation - 2021)

A spatial blend between a very technical set-up and dramatic / poetic issues.

As we know, the "Don't tell God your plans"-series as a 2D-matter, this work is

a sequel in 3D.  Mixed media: photogrammetry,  body distortions, 3D-printing,

matrix, moulding, lasercutting. 120cm x 50cm x 130cm  / 47,24inch  x 1 9,7inch x 51,2inch
