Jef Lambrecht

In her later works, the artist concentrates on exploring public spaces, recording events with a camera from a particular point of view. She has developed her interests in rituals and the metaphysics of religious experience, anonymity, wandering around the city. Archiving sounds and images are also important methodologies in her work. The video Hats is part of the artist’s archival practice of wandering through different places, often geographically distant, recording various headgear; their cultural specifics, styles and colours. Hats is a specific image archive, an attempt to create a typographic study, a record of a journey, a registration made from a specific perspective focused on the movement of objects and forms.
