WHERE DO YOU FEEL AT HOME?
Currently 1.8 million inhabitants of non-Dutch origin live in the Netherlands. Together they represent two hundred nationalities, of which 142 nationalities live in Amstelveen alone. ‘HOME Art Project’ is an art project in which visual artist Stephanie Rhode connects different inhabitants, nationalities and backgrounds through a universal theme such as HOME. The current developments put an extra emphasis on the importance of being and feeling at home.
For this art project, Rhode photographs people holding a white house of wool and asks participants where they feel at home and why. This results in the so-called ‘soul photos’, in which the participant is depicted from the back, aiding in the visualisation of participants thoughts and feelings on the subject of home.
From March to May 2023 the first pre-exhibition took place at the COBRA Museum of Modern Art in Amstelveen. And from June till August 2023 more photos were exhibited at Schouwburg Amstelveen
In addition to a catalog in which all photos and anonymous statements from the participants were bundled, the art project was completed with an overview exhibition held from September to October 2023, in the open air in Amstelveen. It is planned that the exhibition will then travel further, perhaps even to all 142 countries, to show the connection between Amstelveen and the Netherlands and the rest of the world.

HOME Art Project is an ongoing art project for all residents of Amstelveen and their 142 different nationalities. Stephanie Rhode photographed people from Amstelveen with a white house made of wool. These photos are on display in this pre-exhibition. In doing so, she asked the questions, “What does HOME mean to you? Is it your friends and family, personal belongings or is it perhaps a place in nature or a certain environment that makes you feel at home? In short, what do you associate with HOME?”

Art Photography Project Amstelveen
I ask the people I photograph if they can think deeply about the topic HOME while taking the picture, because I want to take a photo in which the thoughts and feelings of the person become visible. Do people adopt a certain posture when they think about their home? Can one see in their pose in which mood or state of mind someone is? These are questions I am looking to answer, I want to make these emotions visible. The viewer sees the photographed person from behind, so he looks into the picture with the person, but he also sees the person’s posture. Exhibition at COBRA Museum Amstelveen.

‘Moving Drawing’: Plants passing through
22
Jul
The small plants and flowers that bloom along the banks of the Amstel and the Waver (small river near the Amstel) caught my attention. With astonishment I saw how they changed on a daily basis from cautious stalks into a large strong plant, before returning the earth and eventually be overgrown by other plants. A simple and everyday phenomenon, but when you stand still you suddenly see it through different eyes. film

Urban Sketching

Tekenen op vakantie of wel Urban Sketching
Tekenen op vakantie, tijdens een stedentrip of gewoon in de natuur wordt ook wel Urban Sketching genoemd. De Urban Sketching beweging is in 2007 in de stad Seattle ontstaan en inmiddels zijn er wereldwijd duizenden kunstenaars en hobbyisten die zich er mee bezig houden. Meestal wordt in tekenboeken schetsmatig getekend, geaquarelleerd en met collages gewerkt. Het is een soort getekend verslag van wat men dagelijks ziet en meemaakt.
Tijdens deze workshop leer je hoe je een vakantieschetsboek maakt en welke technieken je kunt toepassen voor een snelle of juist uitgebreidere schets. De lessen worden zowel in mijn atelier als ook buiten gegeven. Onderwerp zijn: Welk motief kies ik en hoe zet ik dit om op papier? Welk materiaal is handig om mee te nemen op vakantie en welke papiersoorten kan ik het beste gebruiken? Buiten wordt gewerkt met korte opdrachten, aansluitend wordt het werk besproken. Voor wie daar belangstelling voor heeft is er ook uitleg over het tekenen op de smartphone. Aan het eind van de cursus weet je hoe je tijdens je vakantie een reisverslag op papier kunt maken. Ervaring is niet nodig, de lessen zijn geschikt voor beginners en gevorderden. meld je aan
