Crowdfunding for “Wij zijn de Tijden” in June

Feeling the urgency of our times? ⏳ This is “Wij Zijn De Tijden (We Are The Times),” our intergenerational art project about hope, connection and action.
Alida, Winfried, Anne & Jeffrey, are bringing our voices together. But to make this unique exhibition a reality, we need YOUR support.

Help us build this beacon of courage and hope.

Inspired by the words of Augustine (3rd-4th century) “Don’t complain about the emperor or the times… But say: we are the times. Be a beacon of courage and hope yourself,” we believe that art has the power to reach each other and open hearts. This project is born from a deep desire to create a space where everyone feels empowered to be authentic, and where we can grow together in connection. How can we, together, build such a world?

Through works such as Alida’s “Mirror of the Soul,” Winfried’s “The Face of Power,” Anne’s “Free Fall,” and Jeffrey’s “The Garden of Transience,” we invite you to investigate and, above all, feel the complexity of life – from power and the environment to consumerism and personal responsibility. We want to bring about a primary awareness, art that directly touches life.
