TAU

TAU was regarded as a symbol of life or rebirth in ancient times. Janneke Leenders and Nathalia Koux have explored the uncanny realms of life through a diverse range of artistic expressions and experiments.

They invite viewers to reflect on the essence of life, found in death, memory, and nature. The artists also inspire the audience to engage and recognize the boundary between familiarity and unfamiliarity with the subject, hoping that viewers will question where this sense originates and discover the personal meaning hidden within. A tickle to the conscious along with a warmth to the subconscious.

Janneke infuses visual elements, such as abstract paintings and sculptures, with light and sound, guiding the audience to immerse themselves in a wide array of sensory experiences.

She deconstructs the essence and meaning contained within, illustrating how these uncanny forms, through personal experience, memory, and perception, are once again recognized as familiar, regain vitality, and transform into significant entities grounded in phenomenological theory.

Logic into new poetry to make the sentiment and comfort that lives within the structure available for the general spectator. The figures become more than objects; These artificial records act as a bridge between the real and the imagined, suggesting the figure’s complexities and evoking empathy. The act of attributing such data transforms the figure into something alive in the viewer's mind, blurring the line between the artificial and the authentic.
