Cinderella(Side 2) 2016, 116 x 172 cm
This is a double-sided piece with no front or back, but rather two sides creating together the artistic expression of the piece. It is meant to be either hung on a wall with the option to alternate which side is shown, or to be suspended in a room, with both sides equally viewable.
During my daily walks, while taking pictures for the current Daily Walking piece, I also collected objects on the ground whenever they attracted my attention. Once I had collected one hundred of them, I assembled them on this piece.Cinderella lost her shoe which was subsequently found by the prince, with a happy ending of the story. I find objects that were lost or discarded by other people and they become ennobled by being part of a work of art. They are disassociated from their original meaning or purpose, especially on the other side of the piece where only the object outlines are shown: they become hieroglyphs of an unknown language, telling a different Cinderella story.
