ART DIRECTION FOR STAD GENK, 2018
TEK STIEL is a project where artistic co-creation and sustainability are central. We were responsible for the art direction of this process.
Women from Genk were challenged to get started with all forms of textile. We worked exclusively with residual materials and gave used fishing nets a second life by turning them into bags.
”De visnetten stonden symbool voor het vangnet dat de groep voor elkaar was, alsook voor het netwerk dat langzaam maar zeker ontstond in de groep.”
Het project TEK STIEL is een Henry van de Velde Award winner in de categorie ‘Collaborative’.
