ANDRE HZS - INSULA FLE
RISO PRINT + ORIGINALS · 2023
In collaboration with visual artist Martinus Papilaja (Andre HZS), we organized a three-day residency on the Dutch Wadden Island of Vlieland.
On the first day, Martinus drew inspiration. After the one and a half hour trip by ferry, we immediately went on a tour of the island to show all the peculiarities. In the end, he created 3 paintings on the island to be exhibited at the Creative Workshop (Creatieve Werkplaats).

The three paintings are a manifestation of their creator's inspiration and observations on the island, where they gained insights into the local way of life. This experience evoked memories of being in a Moluccan 'Kampong' (village), where everyone knows each other and readily extends help and support to one another.
The (unsold) paintings will be available through our webshop from November 01 (17:00 CET).
The print titled 'INSULA FLE' takes a more illustrative approach to depict VLIELAND, featuring iconic landmarks such as the 'Vuurtoren' (Lighthouse), the infrequent boat service (operating only three times a day), and the majestic 'Grote Zilverreiger' (Great Egret).
