Pieter Verhees

ISEA2013

Pieter Verhees composes artworks, performances and installations in the real and digital domains from the disciplines of drama, sculpture and mechanics. Fascinated by the way we interpret ourselves and how we relate to our environment, his artworks can be engaged and political like the project Theatre of War or they can be intimate, poetic and contemplative as in Blikkensteler. He searches for a state of transformation, when a sensation or thought reveals something new and blocks the way back. With composer Johannes Westendorp, he developed inside Mount Lu, an interactive music composition in which participants enter a sonic world and use sound as a means to navigate or as a contribution to a musical composition.
