For the first room (The Lovegarden) we made a huge fan of 4 x 8 meters) that could open
and close during special performances. The print is made from a two-sides Buddha-face,
combined with elemnets from nature. After construction, green felt leaves were added.

In the fourth room, we wanted to create a desert-like atmosphere. Printed sheets of
paper were sewn together like parts of a bedouin tent, and used to create a new space
inside the museum. While walking through the new 'corridors', the camel could be observed
through the cuts that were made in the paper.
Russian sweets provided the right camels.... (Thank you Mirjam van Veelen)

Pieter Alewijns of gallery Peninsula invited us to do a special edition print at
Atelier Daglicht, an artist workspace dedicated to large scale prints.
This 'Alchemy' composition was made by combining elements from all parts of the show:
Four colour separations for a Special Souvenir Silkscreen print (edition of 25).
Printed in two kinds of black, white satin and silver.
