Our dead end street is a residential ribbon where children play, people take time to talk and help each other when needed. A mini-community where people take care of each other and friendships are formed. We are in some way isolated from other residential areas around by a railway (Buitensingel) and a waterway (Voorhaven kanaal Terneuzen). It is peacefull living at Limbaland. Muide, Wondelgem, Bloemekenswijk are our closest neighbors.

MUSEUM-BOX - Art at the Windows 'walk-tour 2020'
Museums were closed during lockdown. Walking outside was allowed, so art was brought to the public. I ordered the museum box and motivated neighbors to scotch this art affiches behind their windows.
They were very enthousiast and passing walkers easily stopped to look at the artworks, read the texts and consequently have a chat.
Bringing the museums outside the box
