A collaboration between Lut Bruyninckx and Jean-Claude Ponslet via baron.be
The artist Lut Bruyninckx features an animated character integrated into an antique coffee grinder. Through this mechanism from another time, the work questions free will and the cogs of daily life with a poetic and unique touch.
The artist questions the concept of free will through the figure of the domestic swine. The jewelled crown - red, lavish, slightly ridiculous - symbolises the honours society pins on us without us ever really asking for them. The pig is not a slave to his chains : he pulls them himself. Make of that what you will.
A provocative work using high-precision servos for a bold, symbolic mechanical gesture.
A visual metaphor for time slipping away, featuring complex mechanical and electronic synchronization.
An interactive character whose jaw movements respond in real-time to viewer proximity sensors.
