Het madeliefje
"The flower is made of local recycled plastic possibly together with residents we collect plastic from the neighbourhood."
10. Riq Etiq
"The different materials used to depict the figures each react differently to weather conditions. Just like us: human beings. Everyone reacts differently to what we experience."
