\u00a0<\/span>By\u00a0Jannemarein Renout<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Where\u00a0VDMA-gebouw. Vestdijk 25-27<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Jannemarein Renout is a bit of a duck out of water in the list of gems, because she is not a designer but an art graduate. Renout works with document scanners. It produces abstract images, full of colour transitions and crazy effects. \u201cHow far can you go? What is possible with the ink? Does the printer still absorb the effects? I think it\u2019s exciting to see how far I can go with this technique.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Renout didn\u2019t find it interesting to record identifiable reality, during her time at the Rietveld academy she chose photography for her graduation project. \u201cI was looking for a way to capture movement on a flat surface but the effects that I got I already knew. Then I began seeing what I could do with scanners. In the beginning, this was also unsuccessful. Only when Renout did what caused the device to stop working \u2013 switching off the light \u2013 did she get a result. \u201cIn order to get an image, the scanner needs light, otherwise you get a dark result, but if you replace artificial light with natural light then you get an interesting effect.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Renout has collected around 40 scanners in the past three years that she has been working with this technique. \u201cEvery scanner produces a different result, one scans for 8 minutes and the other for 90 minutes. I don\u2019t change anything on the devices. What I do is take the scanners out of their natural environment. I do something that is actually not meant for the device. The information isn\u2019t controllable, it is an interesting process I don\u2019t know in advance what will come out of it. I think that\u2019s exciting. I don\u2019t use 99% of the scans. It remains a kind of quest for interesting images to emerge from the situation that I have to deal with.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Before she was drawn into working with scanners. Renout worked for about 15 years as a lawyer. Something totally different: \u201cYou are extremely analytical, you look through a lens like a photographer, the world from the outside to the inside. This is how people view the world, through images. That\u2019s what I try to let go of in my work. I don\u2019t think from a composition. Through a unique process \u2013 taking office equipment outside \u2013 I try to transcend human presumptions.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Renout\u2019s wish is to translate 2d images into something more tangible. \u201cHow cool would it be if you could translate these images into \u2013 I mean, for instance \u2013 a series of furniture? The scanner makes use of information and translates that to an image, from a whimsical process to a fixed image. These parameters could also translate into something tangible. It seems to me like a really cool study to explore with other designers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The ten gems of DDW were created in collaboration with <\/span>Dutch Design Daily<\/span><\/a> and curator Katja Lucas from <\/span>DDW<\/span><\/a>. Do you want to admire the gems yourself? Every day, <\/span>Urban Exploring Tours<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>KOGA<\/span><\/a> will organize a special bike trip and drop by the selected designers.
