Two vans containing video screens
Van Der Kaap's installation, created for the More to Love event in Bangkok, addresses issues of taking an HIV test. People are invited to watch the video inside the vans. The videoshows a doctor drectly addressing the viewers with the questions that are part of the pre-test and post-test procedure. The work deals with a range of emotions in relation to HIV tests and Aids and aims to reduce fear of taking the test.
