THOMAS VAN DER LINDE (NL, 2005)

The work of Thomas van der Linde looks at the place art occupies in everyday life and the place everyday life occupies in art. His practice uses spatial arrangements and narration to explore notions of artistic production, dreams and desires.

Van der Linde works with materials and scenes that refer to both the mundane and the domain of art. Fabrics, lamps, plinths and mannequins portray spaces that feel familiar, like rooms or fragments of rooms, where objects and their meanings are placed and tested against each other. They hold traces of decisions made during the creative process, and stay open to change as they are arranged and rearranged over time.
