An interesting look into the childhood memories of Levi van Veluw's. The piece speaks to the origin of the artist and his familial relationships in a claustrophobic and uncomfortable life-size installation. 20,000 dark wooden blocks cloak the lifelike figures and work together to produce a narrative piece that embodies tension built between the interconnected relationships. Every movement feels planned by the artist. There is the sense of a knowing secret that refuses to be addressed. This family portrait– is far from picture perfect and that's the beauty of it.
