Nickolaj Recke, ‘Tomorrow is today’ (2006)
The video shows two parallel projections, one from each side of the date line, thus conceptually creating a visual space where you can simultaneously perceive two days; a space that does not exists in physical reality and a space where there are principally no todays, just yesterdays and tomorrows.
Tomorrow
Yesterday

“The landscape was a mixture of the strange and the beautiful..”
“Well, I don’t know about the treasure, but I’m sure there is fever there.”
“There was no evidence that man had ever sat foot here before”

A video shot for Portscapes, a series of art projects along the coast of the Maasvlakte, near Rotterdam.
Dijkman shot the video from a boat circling a newly created island. This video was eventually dubbed with audio excerpts from moviescenes where people are entering land from the water.

Below is an interview with Dijkman about the project
Small oil disaster @ Cacaofabriek
I visited the Cacaofabriek in Helmond yesterday. One day earlier the road right next to the cacaofabriek collapsed under the weight of a huge construction machine, that happened to pass by. The machine hit a water pipe which caused the basement of the Cacaofabriek to be flooded with 200.000 liters of water. In that basement a work was installed by artist Hans van der Ham, that was partly made out of many liters of crude oil. The result was an amazing miniature oil disaster!
Sifres @ Greylight Projects
Last Sunday saw the opening of the brand new initiative Greylight Projects in Hoensbroek. The first exhibition there was ‘Sifres’, with work by Wouter Huis, Wineke Gartz, Thomas Bakker, Laurent Malherbe and Simon Kentgens.

The animals were allured by a sausage. When the fox bit in the bait, it activated the camera connected by a cord with the sausage. One week later the animals had learned to eat the sausage without being photographed.
