Window dressing
Window dressing is a journal of images of shop windows from the Netherlands, France, Belgium, Germany, Canada and the United States.
In shop windows people present their products and businesses to other people. In many cases, the product are matched with architecture that was not designed for such products.
Schierbeek finds these marriages interesting. The changing of the facades, the artistry of display, the unexpected people walking into the image, the different reflections on the glass and the ever changing light all have his attention.
One tends to get lost within these images Inside and outside get fully mixed up pro- ducing a 3d feel.
In many of his photographs the puzzle really gets complicated but at the same time they show a new unforeseen struc- tural order.
It is remarkable how Schierbeek manages to create a new spacial order in the chaotic urban environment. It is exactly what his steel and glass sculp-tures are about; reflection and transparency and thereby creating a new structure in space.
