Full House

While working in Pori on the House Project, the idea was conceived of filling up an apartment completely with wooden scaffolding material sticking out in all directions, so that the apartment would be totally inaccessible and uninhabitable.

That idea was realized in 1994 in Tilburg at the Vertoningsruimte Argument. During the opening everyone present participated in putting together this rather chaotic installation.

The space was inaccessible throughout the exhibition period. The idea to open the doors and let the installation of scaffolding parts protrude was unfortunately not realistic. We did not want to take the risk of someone having an accident or setting fire to it. So the doors of the House Project were only open when one of the staff members of the gallery was on site.

At the closing festivity, the whole installation was taken apart by the attending participants.
