At the initiative of Wobby, three artists did a residency at Landpark Assisië, a residential facility for people with intellectual disabilities. During Festival Nabij on 9 & 10 May, these artists will be exhibiting the works they created as a result of their residency. Artist Katrein Breukers was inspired by archival objects such as candle holders and chalices previously used in the church on the grounds of Landpark Assisië. During the festival, visitors can join Katrein’s clay candle holder workshop, which will come together in a temporary altar.
