FadingColours

The five living data sculptures are connected to NOAA’s Coral Reef Watch, used to observe and research coral reefs worldwide. The algae create a tangible reflection of the situation of their species and the corals under the sea surface.

To keep the algae healthy and alive, you can not change the reef they are connected to.
The other reefs can be explored on the screen.

FadingColours

Coral reefs are among the most vulnerable ecosystems on the planet. Our world is literally losing colour with the bleaching and disappearance of our coral reefs. Corals are animals that live in a symbiotic relationship with algae called zooxanthellae - they live inside the coral and provide 90% of the food corals need. Zooxanthellae are also responsible for their bright colours!
Coral bleaching happens when sea temperatures become too high or low.
These little temperature changes can cause coral to drive out the algae.

The algae in FadingColours show you the coral-algae perspective on our world.

In this partly interactive installation are the living conditions of the algae influenced by the almost real-time data on coral bleaching.

ZIEN is an invitation to reflect and take responsibility. To keep seeing yourself and others. Sometimes it may seem that you are being absorbed in the whole thing. By keeping an eye on the details you are able to remain seeing.

I am extremely happy that the Ministry dared to give art space. That they were willing to invite a different voice within their walls and to let it go outside. I hope that people keep meeting each other between the pillars of ZIEN.

After a week of working outside in front of the Ministry, the moment was there. The opening of ZIEN with Han van Gelder and the mayor of Den Haag @burgemeesterjanvanzanen

ZIEN is about the process rather than the result. The Kunstcommisie of the Ministry of Finance asked me to develop a work based on my experiences within and in relation to the Ministry of Finance. The Ministry is a place that quickly becomes an abstraction to the outside world. A building, an institute, an envelope, a name. In the same way, the outside world is abstracted within the walls of the Ministry.

On both sides, I heard a need to be seen and heard within the bigger picture. Especially in relation to the introduction and use of technology. We all know how things can go wrong when we lose sight of how technology is applied. With ZIEN, I created a meeting with each other and technology outside the walls of the ministry. I showed the process openly. The mess it brings. The constant need to adapt to the process. I am thankful for everyone who came together last week to create a collective visual reminder from the individual portraits to stay out of the abstract.

ZIEN is created in five days from the cooperation

ZIEN is created in five days from the cooperation between the robot arm and humans. The robot engraves portraits of interested passers-by in mirrors on the square in front of the Ministry of Finance. I use these portraits to build the installation on the spot. Everyone outside and inside the Ministry of Finance is welcome to come and have their portrait made!

You can still visit the installation ik until Friday. At 11.00/13.00 /15.00 /17.00 /19.00 the robot takes picuters for the portraits.
Would love to see you here if you're around.

And don't forget the two amazing people who went through the whole process with me @mollywitman and @abaxtan

The amazing support of @creativerobotics.at and @kuka_dach / @kukaglobal

Official start of ZIEN at @minfinancien

ZIEN is the result of my artist in residency at the Ministry of Finance. A place that brings tension because of its many sensitivities. A place that quickly becomes abstract for most of us. The Ministry asked me to come in, observe and make a new work based on my experiences. It became a critical reflection on the current situation with an invitation to the future.

In ZIEN the contact between the ministry and the outside world is central; people inside and outside the ministry want to be seen, heard and recognized. In view of the ongoing process of automation in government, the preservation of humanity is essential. ZIEN examines the relationship that we, as a society, want to have with technology. ZIEN is a visual reminder of the need to maintain the connection and have an eye for the individual.
