In this beautiful cathderal a day full of various activites takes palce, including Olivia's panoramic dreams work. For the past two years Olivia has been assisted on the day by fellow Houten artist Alice Scholte. Oerol Festival and SLEMIn June 2009 Olivia took part in the Oerol festival on the island of Terschelling, in the Netherlands. Olivia took part in the festival by creating a Wind Nomad for the occasion. This consisted of a painting on panel, placed on a stand allowing the paintings to move in the wind while exhibited on the Dutch coastline. The project was the brainchild of SLEM ( Stichting Landschapsbeheer En Meer) or the "Landscape Theatre Foundation". For more information regarding the sale of the wind nomads, other projects by SLEM and photos go to SLEM's website: www.slem.org There is also a catalogue available giving an overview of the paintings , their price and source of inspiration. |
