GROUNDMARKER
Groundmarker is a multi disciplinary and site specific project that has been developed over the years tracing white lines with chalk in public space.The ground-marks are made with basic tools, materials and geometric design methods. Interventions are ephemeral and disappear in the course of days, week or months.
Groundmarker project invites people to enter a given space with a new set of reference.
By marking the ground meaning, sense and functions of a place are altered

Interfering pattern III
Concieved in close collaboration with Stof vzw this groundmarking started with a 1 on 1 scale of the future building implantation on a social housing site - den Drijhoek in Geel.
In the second stage of marking a harmonic pattern of concentric circles appeared within the confines of these future walls.
Interfering pattern II.
An installation made for the occasion of BXL Bravo. On a place encircled by poplar trees situated along the canal, this installation consisted of white pillars that where verticaly implanted and a ground marking showing an interplay of concentric circles. While mathematical logic of progression served as starting point to create the design, the groundmarking integrated given specifics of the place.
Playground I
Over the course of a week the public square Jacques Franck nearby Hallepoort was transformed as a playground. The groundmarking suggested an imaginary architectural structure while integrating the overal physical setting of the place with its trees, pathways, benches and people.
The performance started with box delivery at the entrance containing pillars or pawn to activate the playground.
