Ladder, 2010 (left)

Aluminium ladder

The work takes another everyday household object as its starting point. This time the aluminium ladder is modified and deprived of its original function, so that the beginning and end of the journey are there but literally the steps in between are taken away.

8680 pages of A4 paper

The work consists of 8086 pieces of A4 paper, each page numbered 'page 8680 of 8680' and all of them stacked up above each other neatly to assume the shape of a plinth. A play on shapes, it refers to the work Things having the same height as the plinths in that work.
