Between Tides is an immersive installation in which Marco Sleumer explores a new part of his inner world and enters a new stage of life. Just as tide pools form between ebb and flow, he finds himself in a liminal phase, a transitional space between being a student and entering adulthood. This symbolism lies at the centre of the project.

The installation features organic sculptures inspired by a symbiosis of corals and fungi. Their growth patterns, shapes, structures, and colors are translated into imaginative creations that seem almost alive.

The project emphasizes that liminal phases are not voids but are filled with richness and potential. Visitors are immersed in a fantastical environment that presents the unknown as something beautiful and full of promise. At the same time, Between Tides invites reflection on the moments of change in one’s own life and the hidden possibilities they hold.

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?
