Observatory
Window Gallery

The art-window can be viewed daily until 10 pm.

in the Tolstraat / corner Diamantstraat Amsterdam.



Werkplaats RUIM is building an Observatory, a growing, fragile, poetic world
which you can look at in different ways.

In the art-window you can daily view a installation with photos, drawings, objects and films.
The installation changes seasonally and also invites you to take a walk along the garden and through the neighbourhood.

The Observatory arose out of an interest in natural forms, processes,
organisms and systems. How do we achieve a healthy organization in which there is room for
the human dimension, personal freedom, multiform, diversity and sustainability?

You will find an overview on the installations in de art window HERE.  


LANDS END

hours of scorched clay
feet to the end
dive into hiding


then whirl
take a breath
in melting sand

well

singing ice
breaks light

'Lands End' is about loss, comfort and hope.
Does the environment survive humans
or does humans survive the environment


TRANSIT

While my feet
explore the landscape
the earth like a circus ball
my heel kicks away pressure
my toes allure time
now I float to land

Werkplaats RUIM builds an observatorium, a growing, breakable, poetic world, that pop's up at various sites.
It's an ambiguous world, you can look at it in many ways.
The observatorium came into being out of an interest of natural forms, organisms and systems.
How do we reach a healty organisation with space for human scale, personal freedom,
multiform, diversity and sustainability?
