What does this chandelier remind you of?
Wyn Evans created three works of art especially for the Hijmans van den Bergh building. This educational building (2006) was designed by architect Erick van Egeraat and is striking for its organic shapes, bright red stairs, lime-green floors and lots of glass. The three artworks belong together but not all three can be seen at the same time. They stimulate your senses and challenge you to think in different ways. What do we perceive, and how do we interpret what we see and hear? What 'subtitles' do the works of art provide in the form of light, movement and sound?
