About Henk Visch

Henk Visch is a renokwn Dutch sculptor, draughtsman, poet and painter. He curates exhibitions and writes art criticism. His oeuvre includes figurative sculptures as well as abstract constructions, small-format works are juxtaposed with monumental sculptures and the material ranges from wood to aluminium and iron to bronze. His sculptures draw their substance from psychoanalysis and the unconscious. They overcome the aesthetic and constraining conventions of the representation of reality and of the body.
 

About Spiraling into Infinity of Children of the Light

To our eyes, darkness is the absence of light, and light appears as the origin of life. In the world premiere of the awe-inspiring installation Spiraling Into Infinity by Amsterdam based artist duo Children of the Light, light is staged as a fleeting yet tangible presence that is playfully roaming the nebulous exhibition space of MU. Shifting colour, speed and direction, the light evokes different moods and modes of being. The soundscape by Jacob Lekkerkerker intensifies your perception of space. Like Matisse making a spontaneous penlight drawing in the air, Children of the Light – although on a slightly larger scale - do not only represent the visible, but reveal also what lies beyond.
