    Doubletake | 2016

Double take is the moment when an unexpected spectacle steps out from the stream of perception and - though we already went passed it - we turn back to take a look again. The project aims to dig out conventions in everyday life that we are so used to that they become invisible. As examples of these conventions some public statues were virtually modified in a subversive way.
