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.

today summer vacation is officially over,  

it's time to go back to school!

 I really enjoyed the last holiday days with my family

at the dutch south-coast (Zeeland)  

it was such fun and we visited a lot of nice spots!
 One of the villages we came along was Veere

where we admired this amazing expostion in a formal church...

Just loved this (im-)perfect location with its large windows, 

rough plastered and brick walls, marbled and natural stone floors,

 high ceilings and ofcourse all the beautiful items of the

 "Confluence" art project by Elis Vermeulen and her guest artists

This exposition consists different "rooms" decorated 

with wooden beds covered by beautiful hand-felted fleeces

 complemented with stunning (tatoo) photography on the walls

and so much more inspiring things to see and to do!
- oooh we loved these great swings :-) 

beautiful simplicity...
Don't miss it if  you're in the area
see and read more about the project here
and have a fantastic new week!
