Skryf writes with sand text on the ground. Out of a small manipulated opening the sand is flowing. Very slowly it puts the text letter by letter on the ground. As long as the machine is writing a letter, the machine protects that part of the text. When the machine has finished the letter, it continues with the next part of the text and reveals the text just written to the elements and the passers-by. Slowly the written text will get affected by the weather and audience and will disappear, slowly.​

Visual artist Gijs van Bon is constantly building art installations, which he exhibits in The Netherlands and around the world.

His installations, often highly technical, are based on a powerful autonomous core and benefit from his creator's theatrical knowledge. Almost all his work focuses on a specific action that takes shape through a mechanism or through a particular position of the installation in a room or public space, always by using technology.
