Exhibition 'Sensory Spaces 11 - Raphael Hefti' in Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen
Sensory Spaces is a series of commissioned solo projects presented in the Willem van der Vorm Gallery, located in the freely accessible exhibition space in the museum’s entrance hall. Artists are invited to respond to the architectural qualities of the space, emphasizing notions of transformation and surprise.
For the eleventh edition of the Sensory Spaces series Raphael Hefti (born in Switzerland in 1977, lives and works in London and Zurich) will present a site-specific installation.
Hefti's work is experimental, it untilizes chemical and technical processes with industrial equipment in order to discover new things. His work includes many aspects; nature and industry, abstraction and figuration. Hefti often works with engineers, scientists and even dogs with the aim of developing an unexpected beautiful form.
