From stone to grain to soil to stone From fiber to yarn to fabric to fiber

A research on soil resulting in a live performance supported by a video work at The Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, NL. ‘The fabric of...’ is used to explain the structure and connectedness of things. I explored a sense of time and intensity of work it takes to create a soil by grinding a piece of hardend clay soil into a powder with my hands.

The soil comes from Salin d’Aigues-Mortes in France. The sketches for the performance I captured in video’s of which stills are included on the next page.
