In the final session of our project ‘What if we become everything’, we went outside. A big step, especially for Onno, as this was far outside his comfort zone. The poem below is the first poem Onno wrote for this project. Similarly, I had to take a big step outside my comfort zone to make ‘poems’ with Onno on the three rolls of paper, each 10 metres long (!!!). I thought that anything that came out of my head on the paper was ridiculous. I am not a poet so what on earth am I doing?
The project is a reflection of the power of vulnerability, of play and how you can allow the other into your own art form, into your head and into your heart.
Do you want to have your own photo card with a personalized poem of Onno? You can get this for only 35 euro’s. You can either pick it up at the exhibition ‘From the Soul to the Soil’ in Eindhoven or I will send it to your home address! Order before 30 October 2025.
