‘Bark Portraits’ is an artistic research about the outmost layer of trees and our perception of this layer. Is bark really as static as you think?

A big part of the tree’s life takes place on this outer layer; the life of other organisms but also the aging of the tree itself. There is a lot of information you can get from the bark of a tree. You could see this layer as a fingerprint. Every tree has its own identity and thus his identical bark. A bark which changes and renews over time. Bark is alive.

Werk in uitvoering

Cat Elfrink

For the past year I’ve started viewing my workspace more and more as the work itself, placing the process of working and play at the center. The surprises I encounter when I focus on the process instead of the result. The discovery instead of the conclusion. The work ‘work in progress’ uses the skip container as a starting point to explore value and desires in creating.In the EXbunker, a situation develops where the content remains changeable and the action keeps changing. Using scrap wood and objects found on the street that previously held a different purpose, I work on a space that holds balance between function and form. Everything that’s in the space is used to make the space. Here, inventive, coincidental or awkward connections continuously play a different role. Where does the act end and the work begin? Or can these two terms coexist in the same sense of the word?
