Peter Van Hecke
A Study on Impact (Connecting the Dots - part II)
31.10 – 08.11
As part of Connecting the Dots, KIOSK presents A Study on Impact, an interactive installation by Peter Van Hecke in the kiosk pavilion in Citadelpark.
Inside the pavilion, a sculptural space emerges, constructed from eight willow longbows. Visitors are invited to activate the installation through play. Using a blowpipe, they fire acorns collected in the park at a target that forms the space’s final element.
Each impact produces a sound and a vibration that travel back through the installation to their point of origin. Each impact creates an echo and leaves a dent in the target.
A Study on Impact makes the consequences of a seemingly small gesture visible, audible and tangible all at once. The installation invites experimentation, play and wonder, while capturing the traces left behind by every action.
A Study on Impact is the second chapter of Connecting the Dots, a four-part project by Peter Van Hecke for KIOSK.
