PROJECT OOSTBROEK

Project Oostbroek is a site specific installation created for Platform 57 in The Hague. The installation consists of a map of the farm containing sculptures and installation works. The installation is based on architectural research that Van Leersum did to a city farm in the 17th century in Escamp stood and where her family probably lived. Project Oostbroek excites our imagination through history on this farm to mix with a fictional story. This newly created history translates into a life-size map containing spatial models and other work. The installation takes possession of the gym and part of the schoolyard of Zuid57
