Wir sind das Gedächtnis #02, Edition of 7, 2013. C-print, 170 cm by 115 cm.

The main focus in my work lies in the fascination of the source material I find. Mostly I find my inspiration in historical material; in the periphery of events, where confrontations between worlds or cultures create a new reality. I use any means necessary to reconstruct: mostly I build scale models, combined with material I make (costumes, props, studio settings) and computer generated images. I assemble these elements digitally into new images, to create new material and use these to investigate the impact the source material has on me. Â Â debeijer.com
