D.D. Trans

2017

Sculpture, 87 x 81 x 57 cm.
Materials: coated metal and plastic

Collection: M HKA, Antwerp - Donated by the artist, 2019 (Inv. no. S0602_2).

The name D.D. Trans is a pseudonym borrowed from a transport company that has since closed down. As the name suggests, the artist works with the concept of transformation: everyday, often domestic objects are taken out of their context and, with a slight intervention, transformed into works of art. The result is sometimes formal, at other times poetic or humorous.

About M HKA / Mission Statement

The M HKA is a museum for contemporary art, film and visual culture in its widest sense. It is an open place of encounter for art, artists and the public. The M HKA aspires to play a leading role in Flanders and to extend its international profile by building upon Antwerp's avant-garde tradition. The M HKA bridges the relationship between artistic questions and wider societal issues, between the international and the regional, artists and public, tradition and innovation, reflection and presentation. Central here is the museum's collection with its ongoing acquisitions, as well as related areas of management and research.
