Übermenschlich: Pulver und Sand (II)

Performance (undefined duration)
Pile of sand, water, garden hose

During this rapid simulation of erosion as a performance, visual artist Lodewijk Heylen is slowly engulfed by a stream of sand and water. The work is a visualization of the human urge to control, direct and exploit natural processes and landscapes — an urge that is omnipresent at sites such as the Port of Antwerp, where the first iteration of the performance took place. 

The work is freely accessible during the performance and may be modified by spectators.
