Undrawing

Abstract

In this essay, Sam De Vocht draws from many informal conversations and experiences he has had as Marie-José van Hee's professional compagnon de route during the past 15 years. It endeavours to investigate some of the events that have influenced the physical work while revealing the playful character that accompanies the rich mental world that Van Hee inhabits. Nonlinear, associative and structured round 3 chapters, the essay collects particularities about the architect's oeuvre and her relation to those that help(ed) materialise it.
