Dedobbeleer is known for his sculptures and installations in which everyday objects (such as lamp, key holder, door knob, or plant pot) are modified, assembled, and recontextualized with a distinctive tongue-in-cheek—and at times even burlesque—spirit. Adorned with absurd (randomly chosen) titles, his works can be seen as joyful collisions of language and matter. Yet, this approach is not merely an act of formal entertainment. Nourished by an in-depth knowledge of art history and (seemingly) inexhaustible technical resources, the artist’s work establishes an ongoing dialogue with a broader tradition of sculpture, including its relation to architecture, industrial design, DIY culture, images, and book making.
