As part of the atelier route IJburg, De Warren contributed with an installation in its community space on the ground floor. Exhibition text:

“The installation ‘Double Body’ shows the landscape of Centrumeiland as an archive. How do we relate to this landscape that is constantly evolving? The archive casts a view on the landscape of sand and leftovers unseen. It makes a systematic collection and analysis of rubble, debris and waste, drawing a portrait of our productivity in the landscape: building. The installation invites us to look again, embracing debris and rubble as a new source for creation and suggesting their constant transformation. Here, the debris are appreciated for their differentiations and their scratches.

Inside, we see the archive. Outside, we see the benches and signpost, where selected pieces of debris from the archive have come together to form a new configuration, a new form that symbolizes a metabolic attitude between human and landscape.

Pepijn Determann has a background in architecture, design and community organisation, Thijs van de Loo in theater and applied arts. In recent years, this artist duo - living in IJburg’s collective De Warren - has been working on an artistic practice that focuses on public space and imagining new forms of community. They bring this to fruition in performances, sculptures and spatial installations, often with others based on the idea of co-creation.”
