House with All Existing Words by Mark Manders
An artist book by Dutch artist Mark Manders.
Manders mounted the exhibition in Wönning van Wassenhove, a post-brutalist mansion designed by architect Juliaan Lampens in 1974. While some areas of the house remain largely untouched, Manders has transformed the bedroom, office, and kitchen into stages for an assemblage that reflects the thought processes of the home’s former inhabitant—featuring drawings, architectural proposals, photographs, artworks, paint pots, and what appear to be piles of wet clay.
“The idea is to show the house in its perfect state. There are spaces that go off the rails when you zoom in, but there’s also a kaleidoscopic element to it, like looking inside your head.”— Mark Manders
