Zwemmen aangeraden — mixed media — 2021
The city of Kortrijk has many beautiful waterscapes that could serve as a swimming place. However, swimming in open water is not permitted.
The floating parade travels around the waters of Kortrijk. This artistic intervention aims to make the waters of Kortrijk accessible in a playful and conscious way. It wishes to reconnect the people of Kortrijk by creating an enjoyable experience at the water, while creating awareness on the challenges of these waters, and the risks and responsibility that come along with swimming in the wild.
With the support of the summerschool LIVING WATERSCAPES organised by Bolwerk, Eiland Collective and Start@k
