Finissage New Group Show
On April 22, from 15:00 until 18:00, you are welcome to join us at the finissage of the New Group Show. Many of the artists will be present to tell you more about their work.
As a gallery, we are happy and grateful for the many beautiful projects and exhibitions that we are able to realise together with the artists. The characteristics of the gallery space really sparked the creativity of the artists and allowed them to create site-specific installations and experiment with different formats and materials.
To show the developments of the artists, we organized a group exhibition with the work of all Root’s represented artists. As this turned out to be such a success, we decided to organise another group exhibition. The new group show brings together a variety of new and existing works. Transformations in the exhibitionspace create a renewed experience for visitors whereby sculptural work, paintings, photography and kinetic installations form a dynamic, cohesive whole between the artists' practices.
The exhibition features work by Donald Schenkel, Jan Kuhlemeier, Sophie de Vos, Quinda Verheul, Saïd Kinos, Lisette Schumacher, Freerk Wilbers, Jochem Esser and Karen van de Vliet.

Laying foundations can be described as a precursor of Sophie’s later stilllives such as Where The Field Meets The Forest (2021) and Reaching Down Within (2023). Both works are about balance and our relationship with nature. Sophie combines found materials from nature and balances them with a piece of plaster or clay. This still life evokes a sense of calm, despite the fact that the structure could collapse at any moment.
