Nico Dockx

Belgium

I like to think of my work as a chance archive, an archive without chronology and without hierarchies … sampled, designed and catalogued with the accuracy of a trashcan in the street. Perhaps the work travels light and leaves the studio for more open situations, changing my role as an artist as someone who generates a wandering network of interrelated creativity as opposed to the singular act of being in an isolated space. Maybe the work means closing the studio, removing all objects and forcing me to look at its white walls … discussing its possible meaning. This work is a photograph about pleasure, moments of not-doing, and many doubts resisting today’s production hysteria … hoping to share with you some colours, always already creating new beginnings.
