The Nothing project is an evolving series of portraits of - in most cases - public benches. In this series I explore the sound of sitting on a bench, the construction and character of the bench, and the space around the bench. I look at it from different angles and zoom in on details, and listen carefully to what I hear. Sometimes I manipulate the image or add musical elements to the field recording. The series is still developing and sometimes I add a new episode.

This is an ongoing project. I record the sound of sitting on a bench, and take pictures of this bench. The benches are located in Belgium, Holland, Italy, Germany and Poland.
