location love - "lasloods"



photos elvs

after a fantastic and sunny 
long weekend  at the dutch coast 
 it's great to start with this stunning workspace

I made these pictures this weekend 
while visiting a temporary (13-14-20-21 june) exposition
 in an old whellingfactory in my birth place Vlissingen.
I discoverd the expososition by coincidence
but I was attracted  immediately by the beautiful raw atmosphere 

just loved the inspiring industrial elements 
(as the concrete floors and walls, original details and vintage furniture
 made of used materials) of this gorgeous location in combination with
 the art works/photo exibibition,  mostly made of used materials
 found in- and around this historic industrial building

the building will be open for public on the 20th  and 21th of June


the project: ' If paradise is half as nice #4 ' is the art project of Dutch and German artists in different configurations.
They claim empty expired factory complexes for a short period to work and exhibit. The artists are inspired by the building and the surrounding area and in this way they create large installations, sculptures, wall paintings (often) specifically designed only for the building. The artist have worked together 3 times before in Leipzig (Germany) and this spring, they  work in the yard at the invitation of Culture Lasloods in Vlissingen.
