a commission for the KFHein foundation called Curiosities 09, a project inspired by 17th century curiosity cabinets. Six cabinets were designed, each containing an item that is getting scarce in 2009. In the historic cabinets the curiosities were often parts of animals that do not biologically belong together. In these new cabinets, made from walnut and glass, odd combinations is used as the starting point to create new objects. Each object has its own function. This way the cabinets can be used as a retrospective in the future to show what the state of these subjects was in 2009.
