Christoph Fink presents, in a continuation of his collaborations with Joëlle Tuerlinckx and Valentijn Goethals, a composition of sound, made of different soundscapes and a large pre-recorded instrumentarium. The architecture becomes the instrument itself for the soundwaves traveling through the space. Fink’s visual art practice can be considered as one large, dynamic and ever-evolving score. Earth Piece/Song for STUK inner court is one of its possible manifestations. In the expozaal, Fink also presents a small visual artwork, which functions as a counterpoint, a backbeat in response to the sonorous monumentality to be experienced outside.

Fink’s concept Atlas of Movements initially grew out of enlisted travel materials: detailed chronogeographic notes, photos and sound recordings, ‘sober’ observations of his travels that largely deal with the sketches of dynamic ‘still lifes’ (flights, bike travel, hikes) and their processing in structuring images. From this initial structure, this polyphonic and continuous drone of travel notes, other space-time-structures or contexts, are born: philosophical, musical and historical stories that contextualise everything. The concept of this Atlas has become the bearing title for the entire oeuvre of Fink: the possibilities and limits of the individual human being embedded in the totality of things.
