Final Rehearsal (ESPRIT DE CORPS), 2022

“Do we still have time for a final rehearsal? Can we pass on our planet with propriety to the generations to come?

For future generations, we must keep the rudder straight to preserve a habitable and livable planet. But where do we go, which direction to take?

We all have to do it, together and collaboratively, even if we have different perspectives, sometimes back to back, consultatively, and put your shoulders to the wheel.”

Next step in the process of making the new installation for the VOORLOPERS exhibition at Soestdijk Palace

Taking the sawn wood from sawmill De Salamander in Leidschendam over to the amazing craftswoman, Marjet Röling in The Hague.
Starting to build the art installation together, we are taking on the challenges of the original sketch design, becoming a reality.

Marjet and I have been working together on projects since 2014. From building and designing museum shows to commissioned work, big or small, always a pleasure and great fun!

Forever grateful for sharing her knowledge and experience with me. And most importantly, she has the guts to join me on new adventures!
Thanks @marjet_roling ❤️

Martien van Vliet and Jan van der Ploeg are wood experts volunteering at monument wood sawmill De Salamander in Leidschendam.
The Douglas wood for my new installation at the garden exhibition at Paleis Soestdijk was cut to size by them, using the traditional machinery inside the historic wind mill.
Martien and Jan are so well attuned to each other that they don't need words when they are working together, they are mates in every sense.
They ‘listen’ to the wood and work with the signs the wood itself gives off.

Thank you Martien and Jan for sharing your knowledge and craftsmanship ❤️
