Lost Tablets

ARTIST: JAN VAN SCHAIK

MELBOURNE. 2019 - 2026

A series of art works derived from acts of abstract architectural composition, this collection of 100 objects explores the Ship of Theseus object / concept paradox.

They posses a familiarity that oscillates between the platonic recognizability of Lego, and resonate with the prosaic coded languages of the buildings. They have been featured in Australian newspapers, television, radio, an Australia Council for the Arts report, and have been exhibited in eighteen group or solo shows in Australia, and have received honorable mentions for art and architecture awards, featured in the Melbourne Design Week, and have been displayed in the virtual Italian Pavilion of the Venice Biennale of Architecture, and twice exhibited in the Art Brussels 2024 OFF Programme. The works are accompanied by a book, limited edition large and small-scale prints, postcards, and stamps.
