‘Private Fountains - Public Baths’ is a collaboration between Kato Six and Ada Van Hoorebeke. The work translates communication and exchange into sculpture by questioning the purpose of a fountain. The exchange goes from framed dye puddles to colour baths and from fabric to stamp sculptures. The environment created by the artists blurs the division between tool, idea and outcome.

To celebrate the abundance of creativity some aspects of the exhibition such as the use of natural dye and self-made tools will be displayed an discussed. Six and Van Hoorebeke use their installation as a platform to invite artists and the public to engage in their research. Through a series of activities invited artists will interact with an aspect of the displayed work and explore ‘how it functions’ in relation to their own artistic practic.
