Made between 2000 and 2002, this set is made of screens with
collages/ Paintings/ sculptures on both sides.
The fronts constitute a set but the backs are all different.
Most of them are 120cmx120cm square and 4cm thick and come in two folds. When they are set next to each other, they look like 4 or 6 fold screens.
Since they are made of polystyrene, they are very light but strong because the edges are reinforced.
They can be hung like paintings with hooks and the owner can change the side according to his mood.

Of course they are meant to be laid flat.
The set is an INSTALLATION , more so a variable installation, the screens being closed or opened on the edge or laid down like flag stones.
