Lotte Van den Audenaeren
/NL/
Het werk van Lotte Van den Audenaeren (°1979) draait rond het herbepalen van een gegeven ruimte.
Ze wendt verschillende media aan en onderzoekt de betekenis van woorden, de ruimte en de context in situ.
De ingrepen, toevoegingen en weglatingen die Lotte Van den Audenaeren organiseert in de ruimte hebben soms een minimale materialiteit,
maar de impact op de ervaring van die ruimte is daarom niet minder sterk en drastisch.
Vanuit een duidelijk grafische achtergrond worden objecten en begrippen continu geabstraheerd en naargelang de locatie in een nieuwe context gekaderd

The site-specific installations, urban interventions, neon sculptures, word images and ephemeral works of Lotte Van den Audenaeren revolve around the determination of place and content. Van den Audenaeren shifts presence, use and context. She explores and unfolds multiple-layered perception by simple de- and re-construction of visual representation. The interventions, additions and deletions organized by Van den Audenaeren have a minimal or limited materiality, but they cause a drastic impact on their environment. Her works have a tendency to appear barely present or in the process of disappearing – like light, shadows or apparitions.
