Herzele is a millenial city placed in the heart of the region East-Flanders. To celebrate the1050th anniversary of the foundation of the city, they invited us to build an outstanding biphasic carpet: as backround we used azaleas and after a week the city outhanded the used azaleas to the residents of the city and we covered the space again with coloured treebark. As a result, the carpet remained for more than a month, some materials were reused and recycled and the city experienced something unique with our artwork.
Besides the importance of the city ans its celebration, we are an engaged organization, and due the begining of the Russian-Ucranian war during the spring, we wanted to show ouw full support to Ucraine and the ucranian people by adding a small heart with the ucranian colours underneath the main carpet. We condemn all sorts of violence and discrimination.
