As part of the Mountain Festival Sculpture Trail, Arboreal responded to the relationship between the built and natural environment around Hobart’s urban fringes. Simple wooden geometric structures, which mimic contemporary house architecture, were placed in and around the trees, rocks and terrain along the rivulet walk.
Shoreham Sculpture Trail
with The London Group
and Friends. A weekend of site specific art by over 70 artists spread around the village of Shoreham, Kent.
One of the largest sculptire trails the UK has ever seen. Featuring 30 London Group members and invited artists, including many prominent UK sculptors. 76 artists will be exhibiting over 200 sculptures in 26 gardens. The astonishing diversity of the exhibits ranges from the monumental to the ephemeral with works in metal and stone, with interactive work and performance and the Trail will be particularly unusual in the number of site-specific works. The idyllic village of Shoreham Kent, a gem just on the edge of London, is a beautiful place to visit just for itself and in June the gardens of all sizes, many on the river, will be at their best - visitors couldn't wish for more perfect surroundings in which to view sculpture. Most artists will be present to meet visitors during the trail and many will be giving talks. The Trail is curated by London Group President Susan Haire.
My artwork attempts to map and record the specific emotional and intellectual notions embroiled within the moment of creation, it utilizes a range of artistic tools such as drawing, painting, sculpture, stock animation and collage to immortalize the specific moment. My work centralizes around highly visceral and esoteric themes, developing a complex aesthetic language which employs symbolism and highly empathetic techniques to enthral and perplex the onlooker.
Through the process of creation I attempt to lay down a record or memory of my mindset at that time, I focus upon the perversion of traditional mythologies, especially Ancient Grecian and Biblical myth, to achieve an allegorical context to thematically surround my artwork. I also attempt to apply specific emotive cues in order to embellish a narrative which may only reveal itself to the viewer when the piece is seen in reference to the title of the painting or drawing, this close knit relationship between the title and intentions of the piece manifests an artistic practice which is highly involved with literary and philosophical debates. As a creative person my appreciation of the beauty of form and content is by no means limited to the artistic world, although the analysis and admiration of other artists work is central to my practice, as the aesthetic and thematic beauty of literature and philosophy is a strong influence in the discussion of intellectual ideas within my artwork.
I would consider myself a traditional British artist as my practice and methods are highly conventional, despite the abstract and curious results of my labour, however a theme which remains intact throughout my practice is the artistic relationship with the representation of reality, indeed the majority of my work has a strong footing in realism, and uses a highly developed aesthetic language and symbolism to pervert the actual view of the human form within my artistic universe. This allows me to comment upon issues such as the interpretation of reality and challenge traditional views of concepts so highly embedded in the common mind set, issues of beauty and morality for example. Whilst my work has a definite esoteric facet, it is intended to be seen and exhibited, the intention of the piece is to develop and raise discussion and through the perversion of commonly held images, this is highly effective when dealing with issues of sexuality which are surrounded with taboo, the alteration of conventional images in this thematic bracket is highly potent at stimulating thought and plays with a persons’ introspective nature to raise a deep questioning about the individuals’ place within society and life.

Salvin’s mollymawk was previously considered to be a subspecies of Diomedea cauta (Gould, 1841). However, following the transfer of D. cauta to the genus Thalassarche it was elevated to specific status. Salvin’s mollymawk frequents New Zealand coastal waters, especially south from Cook Strait and is a familiar albatross scavenging around commercial and recreational fishing vessels.
Salvin’s mollymawk is a typical medium-sized albatross. It is black across the upperwings, with a white lower back and rump and black tip to the tail. The underparts are white with narrow black borders under the wing and a small black notch in the “armpit” at the base of the leading edge of the wing. The head, throat and nape are pale grey, creating a hooded effect. The bill is grey-green, with a paler top and bottom and a black spot at the tip of the lower bill. Juveniles fledge with olive-brown bills with a dark tip, but apparently immediately depart New Zealand waters, and do not return until they have adult colouration - www.nzbirdsonline.org.nz
The specific name caeruleomaculatus is a noun in apposition and refers to the bright blue spots present on the oral veil and notal margins.

Sai Baba On KNOW WHY YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN YOUR..
It is said sometimes less is more!
A specific word of Swami can convey a message that resonates for a lifetime.
A single word of Swami has the power to transform a life. A small word i.e. "Go" from Swami's mouth at Darshan time brings joy, elation and expectations. Divine words appeal to our mind, demand transformation, charge our "batteries" and bring comfort & solace into our life. However, transformation can only happen if we pay attention and use this body given by God for a higher purpose. In 1977 Swami gave small clues to why we have been given Life, vision & eyes, legs, hands, intelligence, mouth, Ears and human body. Swami gives small but true definitions and we at `Sathwic food' have collected them on a single small webpage for as they say Less is more.
KNOW WHY YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN YOUR...
1. Life
2. VISION & EYES
3. LEGS

5. INTELLIGENCE

LIFE: It is not for searching for food all through and eke out a livelihood but it is to enable you to search and search God. (S.R.B.M.- p.17- Sai Baba)
________________________________________
VISION & EYES:
It is for seeing everything that is around you? No, certainly not. It has been given to you to help you to see the Supreme One, the omnipotent Divinity.
(S.R.B.M.- p.27- Sai Baba)
________________________________________
LEGS:
Are theses legs given to you to go round all the streets and the narrow lanes in a purposeless manner? No, they have been given to you so that you may visit the temple of God. (S.R.B.M.- p.36- Sai Baba)
________________________________________
HANDS:
They have not been given so that you may continually feed your mouth with these hands. They have have been given to you so that you may perform Puja ( worship) with flowers to the Lord. (S.R.B.M.- p.46- Sai Baba)
________________________________________
INTELLIGENCE:
It is not to be used for the purpose of accumulating wealth. Intelligence has been given to you so that you may realize that all that you see around is temporary and transient phenomenon. (S.R.B.M.-p 54- Sai Baba)
________________________________________
MOUTH:
Is it to utter all kinds of words? No, it has been given to you so that you might sing the glory of the Lord. (S.R.B.M.-p 61 - Sai Baba)
________________________________________
EARS: Is it for hearing all the sounds that are uttered near you? No, the ears have been given to you so that you may listen to songs relating to the glory of God. (S.R.B.M.-p 68- Sai Baba)
________________________________________
HUMAN BODY:
Is it to take to all corners of the world? No. that is not the purpose. You have been given this body so that you may demonstrate with its help the truth of the statement that the body is intended for doing good to other human beings. (S.R.B.M.-p 79 -Sai Baba)

Primates. Baboon. Kruger National Park. South Africa. Mar/2021
Baboon
Baboons are Old World monkeys belonging to the genus Papio, part of the subfamily Cercopithecinae which are found natively in very specific areas of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. The five species are some of the largest non-hominoid members of the primate order; only the mandrilland the drill are larger. Previously, the closely related gelada (genus Theropithecus) and the two species (mandrill and drill) of genus Mandrillus were grouped in the same genus, and these Old World monkeys are still often referred to as baboons in everyday speech. They range in size and weight depending on species. The Guinea baboon is 50 cm (20 in) and weighs only 14 kg (31 lb), while the largest chacma baboon can be 120 cm (47 in) and weigh 40 kg (88 lb).

Babuíno
Os babuínos são macacos do Velho Mundo pertencentes ao gênero Papio, parte da subfamília Cercopithecinae, encontrada nativamente em áreas muito específicas da África e da Península Arábica. As cinco espécies são alguns dos maiores membros não hominóides da ordem dos primatas; somente o mandril e a broca são maiores. Anteriormente, a gelada (gênero Theropithecus) e as duas espécies (mandril e broca) do gênero Mandrillus estavam agrupadas no mesmo gênero, e esses macacos do Velho Mundo ainda são freqüentemente chamados de babuínos na fala cotidiana. Eles variam em tamanho e peso, dependendo da espécie. O babuíno guiné tem 50 cm (20 pol) e pesa apenas 14 kg (31 lb), enquanto o maior babuíno chacma pode ter 120 cm (47 pol) e pesar 40 kg (88 lb).

It's been decades since we Americans have had to worry too much about inflation at the grocery store. Oh, sure, prices go up a bit every year, but now, it seems to be getting serious.
For most of my lifetime, supermarkets have always been full of plenty of food products. We have been SO blessed.
Unfortunately, things are now changing, and not for the better. A
massive wave of inflation has hit agricultural commodities, and food
producers have felt forced to pass those cost increases along to
consumers. Unfortunately, many experts are anticipating that the price hikes that we are currently witnessing are just the beginning.
I'm sure you have noticed that your grocery bill is higher each week than it has been previously. But think about it this way: Food prices will never be lower than right now - today!
So what's happening that is causing prices to accelerate now and in the coming months? The following are 5 specific reasons why you should stockpile food right now…

Sometimes called Blue Swallowtail or the Philenor, specific epithet philenor (Greek φιληνωρ) literally means "fond of a man/men" or "loving one's husband". Linnaeus doesn't explain what this has to do with butterflies.
There are two subspecies in the U.S.
Wingspan 70-130 mm. Iridescent blue/black pattern on upper surface is distinctive when fresh. Can be confused with other members of its mimicry complex. The Pipevine flutters its wings incessantly while nectaring,; some speculate this is part of its mechanisms for advertising distastefulness. Some others in its complex, notably the Black Swallowtail, seem to do this too.
Male has very iridescent upper surfaces of hindwings. Female has less striking iridescence. Underside has a single median row of orange spots which do not touch each other.
Found from the southern United States, to southern Mexico. In eastern US, old fields, etc. near woodlands with hostplant. Mid-summer in eastern United States. Does not fly as late into fall as other swallowtails. Caterpillars present from June into fall in temperate areas.
Larvae feed on Aristolochia species. These include "Pipevine" or "Dutchman's Pipe", Aristolochia species (tomentosa, durior, reticulata, californica), as well as Virginia Snakeroot, Aristolochia serpentaria. Larvae presumably take up toxic secondary compounds (including Aristolochic acid) from their hostplant. Both larvae and adults are believed toxic to vertebrate predators, and both have aposematic (warning) coloration.
Adults nectar on a variety of flowers, including asteraceae. Males take fluids from damp sand.
Two or three flights per year in North Carolina. Flies all year in tropical Mexico. Overwinters as chrysalis in temperate areas.
The beautiful Pipevine Swallowtail, Battus philenor, is the model of a Batesian mimicry complex. The members of this complex present a confusing array of blue-and-black butterflies in the summer months in the eastern United States.

A licensed roofer demonstrates compliance with industry standards and assures customers that the person or company they hire has the necessary skills and qualifications to perform the job effectively and meet all legal and safety requirements. Licensing in the roofing industry refers to obtaining a formal authorization or certification that allows individuals or companies to provide roofing services legally. This license proves that the person or organization has met specific requirements, such as completing necessary training, passing exams, and demonstrating the knowledge and skills required to ensure the safety and quality of roofing work. By obtaining a roofing license, individuals can demonstrate their expertise and commitment to the industry, gaining a competitive advantage in the market. A roofing license also assures customers that the person or company they hire has the necessary skills and qualifications to perform the job effectively and meet all legal and safety requirements. Licensing in the roofing industry contributes to protecting the interests of both customers and legitimate roofing professionals, ensuring that only qualified individuals or organizations operate in the field.
Licensing Requirements for Roofing Contractors
Becoming a licensed roofing contractor is an essential step for professionals in the roofing industry. From meeting specific educational and training requirements to obtaining a roofing license, fulfilling the necessary paperwork, and passing exams, becoming licensed offers numerous advantages and benefits for roofing contractors. Whether you are just starting your career in the roofing industry or looking to enhance your professional credibility and expand your business opportunities, understanding the licensing requirements is crucial for success. A roofing license signifies that you are a reputable roofing contractor, demonstrating your commitment to professionalism and adherence to industry standards. This credential enhances your marketability and ensures that you have undergone proper roofing training and hold a contractor license, distinguishing you from unlicensed contractors.
Examination and Certification Processes
The examination and certification processes for obtaining a roofing license are crucial steps for individuals interested in the roofing industry. To begin, aspiring roofers must first register for the prelicensing exam and get the necessary study materials to prepare for the test, which may include the trade exam and remodeler exam. The examination typically consists of multiple-choice questions that assess knowledge and skills related to roofing practices, types of roofs, and bond requirements. Individuals must meet the designated passing criteria for the licensing examination, including achieving a particular score or demonstrating proficiency in prerequisite experience and specific areas. Certification is essential to validate one's knowledge and skills in the roofing industry, as it provides credibility and reassurance to clients and employers. By obtaining a roofing license through the examination and certification processes, individuals can enhance their professional reputation and gain a competitive edge in the field.
Renewal and Compliance Obligations
Renewal and compliance obligations are essential for maintaining a roofing license. It is crucial to understand the specific requirements and procedures that must be followed to fulfill these obligations. Timely renewal of licenses, certifications, and permits, including the licensing process and certification examination, is necessary to ensure that one continues to operate legally in the roofing industry. Failure to renew these credentials on time can result in penalties or even the suspension of the license. Additionally, it is vital to comply with applicable laws and regulations governing the roofing industry, building construction, and adequate roofing insurance. This includes adhering to safety regulations, building codes, and other legal requirements relevant to customers, residential or commercial projects, and construction contractors. By staying in compliance, reputable roofers and roofer-specific license holders can demonstrate their commitment to quality work and the safety of their clients and employees while avoiding additional costs.
Benefits of Hiring a Licensed Roofing Company
When hiring a roofing company for your home or business, there are numerous benefits to choosing a licensed contractor. A roofing license demonstrates that the contractor has met the requirements for roofers and the qualifications to perform roofing work, including registration for roofers and a separate license. Still, it also provides assurance and peace of mind for the homeowner and the contractor. Hiring a licensed roofing company ensures that you work with reputable roofers with the knowledge and expertise to complete the job safely and effectively. In addition, licensed contractors are more likely to carry proper insurance coverage, protecting you from any potential liability in case of accidents or damages. Furthermore, licensed roofing companies are typically held to higher standards and regulations, ensuring they adhere to the industry's best practices and codes. By hiring a licensed roofing company, you can trust that your roofing project will be handled professionally, efficiently, and with the utmost quality, providing long-lasting protection for your property.
Enhanced Quality Assurance
Hiring a licensed roofing company significantly enhances quality assurance for homeowners and businesses. When you choose a licensed professional in the roofing industry, whether residential roofing contractors or commercial roofing contractors for larger roofing projects or roofing jobs, you can expect several benefits; firstly, their quality is of superior quality, ensuring that your roof is durable and long-lasting. Additionally, licensed roofers strictly adhere to safety standards, minimizing the risk of accidents and injuries during roofing. These professionals are also well-versed in regulatory compliance, guaranteeing that all necessary permits and inspections are in place. Lastly, choosing licensed roofers with supervisory work experience provides consumer protection, as they must follow ethical business practices and provide warranties for their work. In conclusion, opting for certified professionals in the roofing industry brings numerous advantages, including enhanced quality, adherence to safety standards, regulatory compliance, and consumer protection.
Compliance with Building Codes
Compliance with building codes is paramount when considering the advantages of hiring a licensed roofing company. Licensed roofers are critical in ensuring adherence to local regulations, including fire safety regulations, structural requirements, electrical codes, plumbing codes, and accessibility standards. By following these building codes, residential contractors and commercial property owners benefit from enhanced safety, quality, and legal compliance in roofing projects. Licensed roofers also protect against issues with unlicensed contractors, ensuring that the roofing project meets all requirements set by the board of licensing contractors. This not only safeguards the well-being of the occupants but also prevents potential costly legal issues. Therefore, obtaining a roofing license and certification for roofing is essential for individuals interested in pursuing a career in the roofing industry to guarantee compliance with building codes and provide customers with peace of mind.
How to Verify a Roofing Contractor's License
Verifying a roofing contractor's license is crucial when hiring them to ensure their qualifications and competency. By confirming the legitimacy of their license, property owners can have peace of mind knowing they are working with a professional who meets the requirements and has the expertise to perform the job effectively and safely.
1. Research Requirements:
Before verifying a roofing contractor's license, it is essential first to understand the licensing requirements in your specific jurisdiction. Different states or countries may have varying regulations and qualifications for roofing contractors. By familiarizing yourself with these requirements, you can ensure that you seek the appropriate license and certifications.
2. Check License Documentation:
Once you have identified the necessary licensing requirements, the next step is to ask the roofing contractor for their license documentation. This documentation may include their license number, which can be used to verify their license's validity.
3. Contact the Licensing Authority:
To verify a roofing contractor's license, it is crucial to contact the licensing authority responsible for issuing and regulating permits in your area. This authority will be able to confirm the contractor's license status, including its validity, expiration date, and any disciplinary actions against the contractor.
4. Review Insurance Coverage:
In addition to verifying the license, reviewing the roofing contractor's insurance coverage is essential. A reliable contractor should have general liability insurance and worker's compensation insurance to protect against potential accidents or damages during the project.
5. Seek References and Reviews:
Lastly, seeking references and reviews from past clients is always a good idea. This can provide valuable insights into the roofing contractor's previous work, professionalism, and overall customer satisfaction.
By following these steps to verify a roofing contractor's license, property owners can ensure they are hiring a skilled and qualified professional to handle their roofing project. This additional diligence will help protect their investment and provide them with peace of mind throughout the process.
Understanding License Types and Requirements
Understanding License Types and Requirements is essential when hiring a roofing contractor. There are various types of licenses for roofers available, each with its specific application requirements. These include experience, exam passing, and meeting specific educational criteria. Consumers should follow a step-by-step guide to verify a roofing contractor's license. This may involve application processing, contacting the appropriate licensing board, checking for complaints or disciplinary actions, confirming the license is active and in good standing, and requesting proof of insurance. Hiring licensed professionals is essential to ensure the contractor has completed the application process and met the necessary qualifications to perform the job safely and effectively. Additionally, complying with local regulations is crucial to avoid fines or legal issues.
By understanding license types and requirements and hiring licensed professionals, consumers can make informed decisions and protect their investments.
Red Flags to Watch for During License Verification
When verifying a roofing license, one must be aware of certain red flags that may indicate potential issues. These red flags include expired licenses, which could imply that the qualified roofer no longer complies with state regulations. Disciplinary actions and revoked licenses are warning signs suggesting that the licensee has violated rules or engaged in unprofessional conduct. Fraudulent documents related to roof installation are another red flag, as they indicate dishonesty or deception. Additionally, unresolved property damage claims against the licensee raise concerns about their performance or customer satisfaction. These red flags should be carefully considered during the license verification process to ensure that a residential property roofing professional is legitimate and trustworthy.
Importance of Choosing a Licensed Roofer
Choosing a roofer license is of utmost importance for roofing projects. A licensed roofer ensures that the job is performed by professional contractors professionally and competently, providing peace of mind to homeowners. Hiring an unlicensed roofer can result in subpar artistry and potential legal issues. From ensuring decades of protection and compliance with building codes to accessing insurance coverage and warranties, being licensed in the residential specialty contractors' roofing industry offers numerous advantages.
Ensuring Quality Workmanship and Professionalism
Ensuring quality artistry and professionalism in roofing requires following certain best practices. Attention to detail is crucial, as it ensures that every aspect of the roofing project is carefully executed. Adhering to industry standards is also essential, as it guarantees that the work meets the required level of quality and safety. Regular training is necessary for keeping up-to-date with new techniques and technologies, enabling roofers to deliver their best work. Continuous communication with clients, suppliers, and team members is critical for a smooth and efficient workflow. It allows any concerns, changes, or updates to be addressed promptly. Frequent inspections throughout the project ensure that any issues or mistakes are identified and resolved promptly, ensuring the overall quality of the work. By following these steps and best practices, roofing professionals can maintain and improve the quality of their work, enhancing their reputation and customer satisfaction.
Protection Against Liability and Risk
Obtaining a roofing license is crucial in protecting against liability and mitigating risk when selecting a potential roofing contractor. By requiring physical copies of a permit, authorities ensure that roofers meet the necessary standards and regulations to operate in the residential building contractors industry, reducing the chances of subpar artistry or safety hazards. Hiring a licensed roofer gives consumers peace of mind, knowing that their contractor has proof of completion, has undergone rigorous training, and possesses the required expertise. In case of disputes or unforeseen issues, licensed roofers offer legal advice, as consumers can file complaints or seek compensation through the contractor licensing board. This protects consumers from potential financial losses and holds the roofer accountable for any negligence or damages, maintaining public confidence in reputable companies.

The Viennese City Park stretches from the park ring in the first district of Vienna up to the Haymarket in the third district of Vienna and is a of both tourists and local citizens well-visited park in Vienna. Its area is 65,000 m².
History
Yet in the Biedermeier the Water Glacis was a popular entertainment venue before the Karolinenstadttor (city gate). As part of the by the demolition of the city wall happened remodeling in the Ringstrasse, the project of a public park has been promoted on that site by the then Mayor of Vienna, Andreas Zelinka. This park was designed in the style of English gardens by the landscape painter Josef Selleny, the plannings were carried out by the city gardener Rudolf Siebeck. On 21th August 1862 the city park was opened as the first public park in Vienna.

"Wien" (Vienna River) in the city park
On the right bank of the river Wien (Wienfluss) was 1863 the so-called children's park, today mainly characterized by paved playgrounds and sports facilities, which over the Karoline bridge (Karolinenbrücke) (since 1918 Stadtparkbrücke), built in 1857, with the on the left bank situated town park is connected.
In the years 1903-1907 was in the parking area after the regulation a by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer planned Vienna river engineering structure with the river gate, pavilions and river banks built, which is one of the sights in the park.
In earlier times visitors of the park for the stay in placed chairs had to pay fees that were collected by the chair women (the so-called Sesselweiber).
Attractions in the park
Kursalon
The Kursalon
The water Glacis was a spa pavilion in which healing waters for drinking cures were served. To that affect, in the years 1865 to 1867 for the city park also the Kursalon was built according to plans of Johann Garben. This historicist imposing home in the style of the Italian Renaissanceg is located at the John street (Johannesgasse) and has a large terrace in the park:
After the opening on 8th May 1867 were originally forbidden pleasures. As this concept was not adopted, yet on 15th October in 1868 was taking place the first concert of Johann Strauss (son) whereupon became the Kursalon a popular dance and concert venue in particular at the time of the Strauss brothers. Today, the Kursalon after a renovation phase is again venue for balls, concerts, clubbings and conferences and houses a café-restaurant.

Monuments
With the gilded bronze statue of Johann Strauss (son) stands in the city park one of the best known and most frequently photographed monuments in Vienna. It was on 26th June 1921 unveiled and is framed of a marble relief by Edmund Hellmer. The gilding was removed in 1935 and in 1991 applied again. Other monuments there are, for example, of Franz Schubert, Franz Lehar and Robert Stolz and Hans Makart, the City Park is in monuments and sculptures the richest park in Vienna.
The dairy (Meierei)
The former milk bar was built as part of the Wienflußverbauung (Vienna river engineering structure) according to plans by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer from 1901 until 1903. After suffering heavy damages during the Second World War the building was extended in the reconstruction. Today is in the dairy after another annex a restaurant.
Planting
The planting of the city park is characterized by a great diversity of species and is, as possible, focused on a year-round flowering. Through an avenue to the ring road noise and exhaust gases are filtered. Some trees are protected, such as a ginkgo, a crown of thorns (Honeylocust, Christusdorn), cottonwood tree and Caucasian wingnut.

Site-specific installation and performance, The Project Lodge, 2008
This piece was a meditation the cyclical nature of grief and the very solitary ways in which individuals cope with personal tragedy. How much sadness can one endure? How many tears can one cry? Can the work of dealing with intense sorrow ultimately be transformative?
Performed as part of the RAW show of live performance art, curated by Christine Olson.
The sculpture "Koffiebonen" (Coffee Beans), created by the Venlo-born artist Anna Berendsen, is a striking site-specific installation located on the Bartelsplaats in the historic heart of Venlo. Unveiled in 2016, the artwork consists of several oversized, stylized coffee beans scattered across the small square. Cast in shimmering aluminum, these large-scale forms catch the natural light and provide a modern, metallic contrast to the traditional brickwork of the surrounding Keizerstraat area. The beans are arranged in a casual, organic manner as if they had just been spilled onto the pavement, inviting passersby to pause and interact with them.
The installation serves as a "monument of memory" for the specific location it occupies. During the 19th century, the Bartelsplaats was the home of Bartels-Maas, a prominent wholesale company specializing in colonial spices. It was here that coffee beans were imported, blended, ground, and packaged for distribution. In a personal touch of historical continuity, the artist Anna Berendsen is actually a direct descendant of the Bartels family. By placing these giant beans on the square, she bridges the gap between Venlo’s industrial mercantile past and its contemporary urban identity, turning a once-functional industrial site into an aesthetic public space.
Beyond its historical tribute, "Koffiebonen" is designed to enhance the livability and social character of the Bartelsplaats. Before the installation, the square was a relatively quiet and underutilized "clearing" in the city's dense layout. Berendsen intended for the sculptures to make the area more "experiential," encouraging both locals and tourists to linger. The smooth, tactile surfaces of the aluminum beans often attract children to climb on them and adults to use them as unconventional seating, successfully transforming a piece of family history into a communal meeting point for the city of Venlo.

Site-specific installation of paper overalls suspended in front of Snodland Paper mill (in the grounds of St Mary's Church, Burham). Lit with a disco ball buried in the foliage.
Performance in collaboration with Julian Ronnefeldt - Valentina Floris & Milo (concept J. ronnefeldt)
We constructed a white cube out of materials found on the site in order to project the images of the performance taking place inside this structure as an invitation to the participants to enter the structure. Inside was a machine where photo-transfers of the paper factory were placed. We activated various part of the machine that painted the photographs, metaphorically draining paint from the veins of one of the artist hanged outside the cube.
