The work Nothing, 2005, is based on a performance Simona Denicolai & Ivo Provoost organised at the SMAK in Ghent in 2005, where they arranged for the police, fire-engines and ambulances to drive around the Floraliën hall, a huge hangar attached to the museum, with the sirens running, forming a chaotic ballet of emergency in the night sky. Nothing was also produced as a vinyl record. The same year, the artists organised a rave party in the museum, providing the sense of an illicit event whilst surrounded by the sounds of the authorities.
