And Form
2023, Ice
The word CONTENT, spelled out in blocks of ice shaped like letters and spread across the floor of the exhibition space, gradually melts from ice to water. Over time, the form loses its content or the content its form, until the letters are just barely legible. The combination of the work the viewer sees and the title, can be read as both content and form. Concepts that for Baeckelandt are inseparable, not only in her artistic practice, but also in everyday life.
