Shrouded Furnace 5 ²⁰¹⁷

Marie Filippa Janssen comes from southern Germany, where traditional houses are heated with tiled stoves. People attached great value to their stove: they covered it with beautiful tiles and even connected stories and proverbs to it. Shrouded Furnace 5 is an homage to the tiled stoves of yesteryear. It is a working stove draped in a ceramic cloth. This makes it look like it is floating in space. The cloth suggests warmth, but at the same time also a secret that must remain hidden.
