'... a frame defines everything that will be preserved, 

outside the frame is gone forever'

- Wim Wenders

empty space creates a concentrated gaze

INTERNAL DIALOGUE

What happens if I cut all the objects out of the frame? 

Is the original object still visible? 

Does it become more abstract? 

How are those objects related to each other? 

Does the spectator become more curious to the image? 

What happens if I combine the images? 

How is the relation between those objects then?

Does it get a whole different meaning?

What are you seeing? 

How is the frame related to the object?

How can we work with a frame? 

What happens with the places you don't see anymore? 

Do you get more curious?

INTERNAL DIALOGUE

What happens when I cut out my personal belongings? 

Do I still feel connected to them?

How does that empty space influence the mind?

Is this an abstracted layer of my objects?

In what way then?

And how does the relation between the objects change?

What image to you visualize in your head?

INTERNAL DIALOGUE

What different meaning does my collection get in a different environment?

Which role does the Fort play in my collection?

How is the spectator involved in the space?

What my role as the creator?

Is there enough space for a spectator to define their own truth?

What does it mean to them?
