On Spam, Business Proposals (Brussels)

Vinyl adhesive letters on window, 2011. (click pictures to enlarge)

A series of interventions/photographs for which I collect sentences from business proposals that are being emailed to me and that I have plotted out as vinyl adhesive letters. With those sentences I look for vacant commercial windows (shops, offices). Once a suitable window is found I then paste a sentence on the empty shopping window. Oddly enough the business opportunities a vacant shopping space offer work beautifully with the empty promises of loads of money in your email box.

The letter font is Arial, one of the ten Core fonts for the Web.

Dear esteemed recipient,

Dear esteemed recipient,

Hand sawn and painted mdf, 2009.

A sculpture that can be used in any kind of group exhibition no matter what the theme is, who the other exhibiting artists are or what works they are presenting. The piece will always be appropriate and fitting.

The texts are computer generated sentences that spambots leave in the comment sections on websites to pretend that they are participating in a discussion. The goal of this pretence is to generate traffic to the spambot operator’s website.

The letter font is Arial, one of the ten Core fonts for the Web.

Developed for the exhibition Pictures in the reflection of a golden horn: Take #2 curated by Henny Overbeek at the Fabriek in Eindhoven.
