'Night Lights' (2023)
Pieter van der Schaaf takes current building industry standards and transforms them into a veritable playground. To do so, he intervenes in existing environments, where he deploys a practice of in situ detour by means of installation and sculpture. He modifies the appearance, uses and movements of various elements, such as cables, pipes, electrical equipment and other everyday household appliances. For the the third edition of Parade 2023, nightlights made from dinette toys inhabited the Nightshop of MAISON ROUTIER .
'Untitled' (2022)
Pieter van der Schaaf's work, Untitled (2022) presented during the second edition of ‘Parade, the public event’ , seeks to destabilize the presumption around the relationship between viewers and works in an exhibition context by working with his own infrastructure, making the walls turn their backs on the viewer. installations are created from building materials normally concealed behind architectural cladding or facade, thus adhering to the technical norms of the material while using it to construct a visual space in a direct manner. As a result, the material intervention and the space that hosts it function as parallel versions of each other
