Rotterdam-based artist opened her solo exhibition “Nu het er nog is” .

What does it mean to return to a place that no longer exists in the same way? Anouk revisits the landscapes of her childhood through her father’s photo archive, retracing and re-photographing locations tied to personal history. She translates these shifts across time into monumental charcoal drawings that surround the viewer. Her exhibition brings together past and present as layered, fragile constructions, where memory becomes something physical, yet never fixed.

With the support of a Fonds Kwadraat interest-free loan, Anouk was able to realise this solo exhibition. Supporting artists in taking the next step in their practice, from research and production to presentation, is at the core of what we do.
