In situ exhibition ' Finding the light between two cities'
How long can you look at the same place before it begins to change?
For this in situ art project, Nele Van Canneyt repeatedly returns to the Tonte chapel and its surroundings. No detours, no alternative locations — only a sustained attention to what is already there. What first appears simple becomes layered. What seems fixed begins to move.
The same place, photographed again and again. In rain and mist, in wind and snow, at first light and as the day fades. What initially appears unchanged slowly begins to shift. Not the place itself, but what becomes visible. Repetition becomes a way of seeing. A form of attention that unsettles the familiar and opens space for nuance, for subtle differences, for what only reveals itself over time.
At the same location, the historical context of the Tonte Chapel is also explored and documented by historian and archaeologist Philippe Despriet, providing insight into its significance and past.
Between two cities, a body of work unfolds that does not come to a close, but continues to move — a search for light that can never be fully captured.
