You will experience the artwork 'Duck group, tree and bench'.
Created in the 70s by artist Kees Keijzer, and redesigned in 2022 by children from primary schools in Veldhoven together with 't kunsthuis. In an educational project visual arts, the students were included in the complete design process.
The elements that the children designed have many connections with the cycle.
You see the brain, which has a link to ASML, where this artwork is located.
Child in freedom; we have seen that freedom reflected in the designs.
Growth and development; from seed to flowering.
And movement; flow of water, landscape and animals.
The cycle is depicted abstractly in the tree.
