Fenna Koot




By incorporating building techniques, construction methods and playing with concepts such as “building” and “inhabiting” I explore the relationship between humans and inhabited space within my installation work.

The friction between the rational on one side and the subjective on the other, such as the grid versus its breakthrough, the transparent versus the opaque is characteristic of my work. In commissions I like to work site-specific. When I look at the built environment around me, I see a world there that seems to be very defined. Many structures that support efficient and individual movement. It fascinates me how mankind has pretty much reduced the proliferating earth to a large sphere covered by a grid, the world.
