The reason for this complex tower is the current one
living situation as it occurs in large parts
of the non-western cities. Cities such as Caracas and Rio
de Janeiro can only be controlled in part, the
rest of the city controls itself. This is visible in
the way in which the living environment is created, via
informally built houses, without
welfare committees and the material using that
is available. Born out of necessity and after
generating time status.
This mentality can be seen in Favela Tower. The
tower was created in the course of 10 years. If
all works are also Favela Tower an autonomous work;
a self-contained sculpture. In front of Favela Tower
is a pedestal designed inspired by the
marble feet of trophies. This composition is
been shown during Art Rotterdam 2017 and during
the duo exhibition with Tim de Gier, "Pars Pro
Toto ’in Pictura in Dordrecht
