Veerse Gatdam (Map)
During this episode of So You Don’t Get Lost in the Neighborhood, Roos Nieboer invited her audience to join her at the Veerse Gatdam, near the lake of Veere. Because of its vastness, this place is not just visually interesting, but also offers the possibility of openness. During the excursion, Nieboer shared parts of her performances and texts to offer more insight into her way of working. "Special places are often the starting point of a new work, and this particular place near the Veerse Gatdam has always stuck by me", said Nieboer.
