How Now, House? (2026), two-channel HD video, 13’ soundtrack on headphones with subtitles on tablet, living room, card table set.

‘How Now, House?’ investigates our yearning to leave traces behind through the prism of one house in Rotterdam. Using archives, personal memories and the philosophy of time, the film questions whether a space can ever really belong to one person, or time period, at all.

'How Now, House?' exists as a 13 minute single-channel short film and as a site-specific installation. For the short film, see this page.

In the installation, the viewer listens to a 13 minute soundtrack on headphones (while holding a tablet for subtitles), and walks around a living room environment with a two-channel video on a monitor and projector.

Photos on this page are documentation from three test installation presentations, at Galerie Lecq in Rotterdam, June 7-29, 2025, at FilmDak, TOT Project, Oranjeboomstudios, in September 2024 and at Het Wilde Weten in November 2023. The world premiere of the full installation was at the International Film Festival Rotterdam on January 30th, at the LantarenVenster cinema.
