Fairy Installation

For the 10 Weeks and one summer of lightness at The Mediamatic institute in Amsterdam I was invited by curator Martin Butler to produce an original work for the Fays, Fairies & other magical creatures exhibition.

With my installation I invited the audience to enter a fairy realm that normally lies unseen between the folds of everyday reality. The set was created using digital and traditional painting techniques. It consisted of photo quality prints mounted on board, 4 layers of depth, being 5 m wide by 3,2 m high. Using the classic principles of Trompe-l’œil, forced perspective, it was possible to peer in to and even enter this world between worlds.
