In Reset: the documentary, Documentary
In Reset: the documentary, we are introduced to artist Gert Robijns who returns after years to his native village in Belgian Limburg where he sets to work rigorously on his grandmother's house. A personal journey about loneliness, loss, a love-hate relationship with a small community and the construction of a masterpiece: the transformation of a residential house into a sculpture that simultaneously functions as an artist's residence and exhibition space. Prior to the film, Gert Robijns looks back on his unique Reset Home.
The work of Belgian artist Gert Robijns hovers between reality and illusion. He creates idiosyncratic and unrecognizable compositions, but above all, ambitious and sometimes strange versions of everyday things. In his lecture, Gert Robijns reflects on the film and the current state of his work.
