Perceelnummer 3927

Perceelnummer: 3927 is inspired by the pure connection between a boy named ‘Jack’ and the objects in his room in the movie ‘Room’ (Lenny Abrahamson, 2015). A connection in which all the objects around him are meaningful. This we do not experience to that extend in our daily surrounding that tends to exist only as a background behind our stories. In my project that background is the story itself. I am building a house out of the ‘normal’ materials that are around us everywhere. All objects that do not have a decorative function but do decorate space. I am searching for a new connection to the materials and spaces that are already surrounding us. I want to reveal the three-dimensionality and detailedness of our surrounding.
