Sylvie Zijlmans and Hewald Jongenelis were invited to make a work of art in the renovated rehabilitation centre in Breda. They made large panorama photos of a staged gathering.
It looks a lot like a large family gathering taking place in a meadow festooned with flowers. Children wander around with grease-paint on their faces and play with animals. Adults are sitting at large tables, eating and drinking.
The large panorama photos hang in the rehabilitation centre’s public spaces, such as the reception, the canteen and the waiting room. Other photos zoom in on details and charming scenes and are hung in the more intimate spaces of the examination and remedial rooms.
