Laaggedij is a video artwork containing animation, stop-motion, costumes and nature. The duration of the work is 16 minutes.

What does the unknown look like? Xousha Eisenhardt finds herself captivated by the enigmatic allure of the unknown, leading her to explore the origin and creation stories across diverse cultures. In her film, “Laaggedij,” she intertwines her own interpretations of these tales with intimate personal memories, giving rise to a compelling narrative of creation. The fusion of humans and their surroundings takes on various forms in “Laaggedij.” Through the costumes Eisenhardt designed she situated her character just beyond the boundaries of ordinary reality. As the film unfolds, the protagonist goes through different life stages, which Eisenhardt accentuates through the environment. From these different life phases, Eisenhardt also emphasizes the cyclic nature of life on Earth itself. She invites viewers to ponder the mysteries of the unknown and contemplate the interconnectedness of our existence. Laaggedij symbolizes that every ending harbors the potential for a new and transformative beginning, inviting us to embrace the perpetual cycle of creation and renewal.

Between Tides

Marco Sleumer

Between Tides is an immersive installation in which Marco Sleumer explores a new part of his inner world and enters a new stage of life. Just as tide pools form between ebb and flow, he finds himself in a liminal phase, a transitional space between being a student and entering adulthood. This symbolism lies at the centre of the project.The installation features organic sculptures inspired by a symbiosis of corals and fungi. Their growth patterns, shapes, structures, and colors are translated into imaginative creations that seem almost alive.
