About Qama:RE he says: “My work always plays with a mythological potential. The images appear to be objects from myths. They become abstract instruments with a mysterious function. What I want to create with Qama:Re (moon king) is that the bunker feels like a kind of tomb or sacred place that you enter. There is a kind of altar that also resembles a measuring instrument or machine in the middle of the room with a large floating shield behind it that takes on a living shape through the circle. The floating shield suddenly seems like an angel floating in front of the altar, or is the altar an instrument to communicate with the angel, or is the whole thing a kind of shrine for something bigger. The space is small and intimate, which makes the large floating circle, which appears sacred and dynamic through all the rays, intense and personal. This time the angel does not go up but floats close to the visitor. it evokes a different kind of worship and feels like something that can give a victory. The altar becomes a kind of object behind which he seems to speak to the visitor who enters a kind of mystical intimate space. The bunker will turn into a mystical and mysterious temple in which several objects lie as if a ritual has taken place.”

Noud Boogaard

HKU alumnus Noud van den Boogaard investigates how meaning takes shape and how space, actions, and materials influence that process. Repetition and truth play a key role in his models. These models are more than miniatures: they explore the relationship between material and meaning, while simultaneously creating distance and perspective, conviction and disorientation. Through a careful layering of references, Van den Boogaard constructs a world that constantly refers back to itself. Upon closer inspection, one space appears to be part of the next. The result is an installation that constantly questions itself, folds inward, and gradually dissolves all certainty.
