A collaboration with Walter van Broekhuizen
Installation view during Sfear fan ynset, de eerste Trienale van Beetsterzwaag, 2015
This work I made with Walter van Broekhuizen during a residence at Kunsthuis SYB in the countryside of Friesland, up North in the Netherlands.
Sharing an interest in our position towards nature as 2 men living in a city, we wanted to question our own role and longing for this nature.
But the nature we found was full of rules. The most beautiful parts we were not allowed to enter and apart from walking and cycling we were not allowed to do anything else within the woods.
There was only one option left: to stage the 'authentic' actions we longed for within the premises of the residence.
