Art spaces often focus primarily on an art-oriented audience and can sometimes seem inaccessible or even elitist to those outside this circle. How can we truly open ourselves up to a non-art audience? How can we offer our space to others in a meaningful way? With Open Deur, we aim to radically explore these questions through a series of participatory sessions.
At the heart of Open Door is collaborative creation. We have consciously rejected the distinction between "artistic creation" (such as painting or sculpting) and "craft" (such as embroidery, cooking, or gardening). These sessions are about sharing skills, collective experience, and the joy of creating together.
