ARTYCAT in Enschede


Willem from Enschede is hosting a alleycat this weekend. He calls it “artycat” and it sounds really interesting.

The race is going to be part of my final exhibition show for art-school. The
racers will be riding around with parts of the exhibition and the winner has
to put his manifest on the wall. On the back of each manifest is an original
poem, written by me. So it’s up to chance and speed which poem is going to be
featured on my exhibition.
You must know that my work revolves around the concept “place”. The house on
the spokecards is actually a project I did. I built a small house on top of
the art-academy. A place for thinking, dreaming, being.
Just like a bike.
Because for me a bike is a destination, not just a way of transport. Being on
the bike. Riding.
Anyway, that’s the idea and that’s why I organised the alleycat.

I think this is a great concept and of course a nice plan for a saturday afternoon. So make sure to visit Enschede this weekend.
