works
During each project and process - in live and work- there are unexpected contributions of others, objects that got a different meaning from the context or things that remain. Hans Bossmann considers these as work that doesn't have to be created: it originates spontaneously or is being found. He only adds the presentation formround table with colored squares
The table is completely drawn with squares in 'Public Studio in mall'. Haarlem, 2017. Video
