Making clever use of the parameters of Probe; fixed camera angels, a space of 6,6m3 Sibylle Eimermacher creates the illusion of a succession of portals. First and foremost the aperture of the eye, then through the lens of the camera to enter the all seeing eye of the agate. What lies beyond we can only imagine. In Eimermacher’s work geology and the slow formation of stone structures is a reoccurring feature. With Fundort Eimermacher navigates between the world of digital precision and suggestive spirituality. (Suze May Sho)

Visual Essay

To accompany the launch author Miek Zwamborn and designer Sam de Groot produced De Agaatslijpers, a visual essay.
The essay Miek Zwamborn has written for Sibylle’s work opens up another portal, one through which we enter the lives of both the agate and the agate workers.
Sam de Groot’s design for Miek, echoes a sense of suggestive definition that is present in both Fundort and De Agaatslijpers; set in stone there is still more than enough room for the mind to wander.

Probe
Probe was an online-based exhibition space by art-initiative Suze May Sho. A virtual space where every 2-months artists from different disciplines, were invited to research their own practice within a 6,6m3 real space. The scaled test-lab challenged artists to rethink their working methods. Albeit a physical space, Probe was only accessible on the Internet. The registration of the exhibition is the exhibition.
