SEASONING WINTER
Information and dates coming soon….
Performance Installation by Wessel Verrijt
Artist in Residence
Wessel Verrijt collects his materials for the installations at the location where he is working. He uses cardboard boxes, pieces of foam or other discarded items to create mobile installations and costumes. The origin and form of the materials serve as important inspiration during the process.
In the 'scenes' that he creates, his props, set and protagonists come together as an immersive installation. Thus his own mythical stories and rituals arise. Within his work, he seeks a tension between the ordinary and the unusual, the every-day and the deviant by doing interventions in public space.
In May 2020, the Mondriaan Fund awarded Verrijt with the Stipendium for Emerging Artists.
From January to April 2021, Verrijt will follow a residency at United Cowboys. Within this residency he considers the residency-space as his base, where he collects new materials, create new installation and scenes. The final results of the residency will be presented in form of a performance installation.
