Woodcompositions by Koos Lina
About this activity.
Koos Lina creates objects from discarded pieces of wood she finds on the street, in containers at construction sites where renovation or demolition is taking place. These materials seem to have reached the end of their useful life. By transforming them, she gives them a new beginning.
She often encounters the wood while cycling past. Sometimes she hesitates, asking herself whether to take the pieces with her. When she does, she turns back and collects them. Each fragment once belonged to a human-made object — perhaps a chair someone once sat on — and therefore carries a history. Traces of use and wear remain visible: discarded wood in a state of past glory.
Through new forms and compositions, Koos Lina brings new life into these
forgotten materials.
