PNEUMA/ Justice Palace/ Charles Kaisin
For the Brussels Bar’s bicentenary, Charles Kaisin created a spectacular and poetic installation in the Courthouse’s lobby. A total of 10 000 origamis, folded with the help of Sint-Gillis Prison’s inmates, are forming a gigantic wave taking up the center of the space. The paper used to fold the origamis comes from old codes provided by the Bar. The installation is like a “Pneuma”, from the greek origin it means Breath.

Levivier creates a dialogue between the manual and technical as well as with natural fibres and mixed media. Through her unique processes that build up and take away materials, her work refers to the growth of nature and its destruction. They are like a metaphor of life, which advances by adding experiences and the subtractive experience of time. All of the work is about finding the balance point between those extremes.
