about

Abbellimento, from the verb abbellire or to beautify.

During my stay in the city of Venice from November 1st to the 8th I roamed the city in search of sounds that characterised the environment, culture and people. I picked out bits of recordings (or pillagings) that I thought to be beautiful and created new endless spaces of rationalised ornamentation.

"Appropriation to create a new order, aesthetic cannibalism, an old empire in a new ideological mould."

These 13 Loops made a brief appearance at the Venice Biënnale from 1 to 6 PM on the 7th of November 2015. The loops were installed in a pavilion at the Arsenale-venue dedicated to the St Lucas University College of Art & Design of Antwerp.

The installation I created was the album playing on headphones. The lengths were chosen so that each visitor would hear a different loop.

Skip around when you go nuts, or fully immerse in the beautification of repetition ... as you will.
