I participate in the Monnikenwerk project. (monks' work)
'Working in the silence of centuries-old churches, what does that do to you?' That question is central to the art project Monnikenwerk. Fifteen artists will work in old Groningen and Frisian churches during six Wednesdays in the summer. They immerse themselves in the often still sacred space, work on a work of art and host interested parties in the evenings. The fourth edition of Monnikenwerk will take place from 14 July to 18 August. What started four years ago in four northern Groningen churches has grown into a project in which fourteen churches participate this year, including ten in Groningen and four in north-east Friesland. In previous years, the old churches turned out to be unique and inspiring spaces where art, churches and surroundings were naturally intertwined. The artists allowed themselves to be touched by something that was sometimes bigger than themselves and the many interested parties who entered the church in the evening became part of this experience.
