FLEMISH SACRIFICE
Contribution to ‘Re-Illustrating Albers’ Journey’, 2020


We are questioning how literal a reference can get and the meaning of a Mexican reference within our Flemish context. We are imagining a sacrificial mountain of exposed grey cinder blocks, one of Belgium's favourite building materials, stacked using a Flemish bond, lying within the Flemish landscape.

Did we finally reach the limit of the reference?

Should we sacrifice its ever more present use?

What's next?
