ArtFarm

Project title

ArtFarm

Description of initiative

This art center wants to make the healing effect of art & nature accessible to everyone. The site, formerly a repurposed farm, with its rich history, nature, studios, exhibition space and sculpture garden, forms a community where people can 'be', in the broadest sense of the word. In a world where the pace is high, everyone is busy and under pressure, there is a growing need for space and tranquility. By immersing yourself in nature you experience space and you can relax. Your head may stand still for a moment, just like time. Art also has this effect on body and mind. This can be done both in experiencing art and in artistic creation. It provides a diverse range with which the participants can experience the inspiring terrain and the artistic environment for themselves.
