A stark collection of abstruse entities, the Belgian pavilion aims to show a new way of looking at the phases of construction materials, especially during 'the time when the material is subjected to use.' The Rotor collective gathered these pieces throughout Belgium, then fragmented them in their states of mild wear and deterioration. This is perhaps a poetic and topical way to frame a random collection of old objects. Photo 7 of 13 in Venice Biennale: National Pavilions 2 by Tiffany Chu
