62 (Hotel Mayet, Paris)

(...) Van den Hoed spends a lot of time in Hotel Mayet. Between his arrival on Sunday, 12 October 2008 and his departure on Tuesday, 14 October 2008, he works on a rich but incomplete collection of snapshots that document events in and around room 62. Over several sessions, he photographs in minute detail the slow changes evolving in the room and in the view outside. This collection, the result of patience interspersed with intense activity, is eventually condensed in to the work ‘62’. Because ‘62’ is composed of details photographed at different points in time, the work as a whole takes on an unreal character. We see one place, it is true, but we also see many points in time.
