ZOOM
Armed with gumboots and a fascination for hidden treasures,
water beetles, snails, tadpoles,worms, larva and salamanders
have helped me to realize that an exciting world exists just below the waterline.
On another scale this patterns can develop into tornados, whirlpools.
You can find spiral forms beyond the earth
Spiral movements transform chaos into order and order back into chaos. Becouse I can't quite grasp it , I have to look at it again and again and again.
I have to keep looking. How did the snail get such a beautiful shell?
And I read: Scientists have found all kinds of spiral patterns in the microscopic world.
I don't quite understand this snailshell.
The installation 'Zoom' made in 2009 was part of the 'BK Kweek' exhibition:
consisting of an artificial garden at Pakhuis Wilhelmina in Amsterdam,
created in cooperation with installation-artist Koos van der Elsen.
'Zoom' was also shown in the window-gallery of the Franjo Studio in Amsterdam.
