Un train peut en cacher un autre
2017
A striking work by Dutch artist Willem Oorebeek, *Un train peut en cacher un autre* takes its title from the French railway safety warning meaning "one train can hide another." True to Oorebeek's practice of appropriating and subverting existing visual languages, the piece engages with the layering of images and meanings, suggesting that what is visible on the surface may conceal something lurking beneath. The work reflects his ongoing investigation into the politics of reproduction, typography, and the ways in which information is simultaneously revealed and obscured.
