Thank you for joining us for the grand opening of Kwekerij de Verwondering, a charming and small-scale plant nursery created by Jorick de Quaasteniet. Nestled in the heart of the See Lab Garden in Scheveningen, this hidden gem was ready to welcome plant lovers of all kinds. On June 2, 2024, from 1 PM to 4 PM, we celebrated an afternoon filled with nature, community, and sustainable gardening.

At Kwekerij de Verwondering, you found a curated selection of untreated plants, lovingly grown to bring a touch of green wonder to your home or garden. Our commitment to natural and sustainable practices meant you could trust that our plants were free from harmful chemicals and nurtured with care.

Short description:

‘SOLO - AN EARTHLY MEMORY’

‘She descended onto this silent Earth from the endless cosmos above. Although abandoned, this place still holds the stories of the past through the time capsules that are spread over the land. Dreams and memories are glued to the objects that these capsules contain – they speak of fragmented parts of the past and are able to initiate intrinsic, human processes. Thus, the traveller is submerged into stimulating, sensory experiences and the endlessness of her imagination. She experiences for the first time sensations such as taste, sleep and a feeling of longing for a return to the stars.’


Sjuul Joosen is intrigued in his artistry by a constant interaction between his own fantasy and the rules to which reality is subjected. A fascination for the laws of physics and maths grows in his artistic process into surrealistic stories, where the guidelines of reality are questioned and receive a new meaning in their own, transformative world. The installation of Sjuul titled SOLO – An Earthly Memory is an all-encompassing example of this; as flown from another dimension, a woman crashes into a future world in her pointy spaceship, which seems to be an alternative version of Earth itself. The installation creates a surrealistic connection between different places, timelines and sensory experiences, where objects are able to pave a way for an intrinsic and personal journey. Visitors are warmly invited to experience this installation which Sjuul has worked meticulously on for the past six years on Scheveningen beach. 


The film will loop every hour. During weekdays the exhibition can also be visited by appointment. 

Supported by: Mondriaan Fonds, Stroom Den Haag, and See Lab.

Korte beschrijving:

‘SOLO - EEN AARDSE HERINNERING’

‘Vanuit de dansende sterrenhemel daalde zij neer op een stille Aarde. Hoewel verlaten, draagt deze plek nog de verhalen van het verleden dankzij de tijdcapsules die verspreid zijn over het land. De objecten in deze capsules tonen gefragmenteerde delen van het verleden en zijn tevens in staat om intrinsieke processen in werking te stellen. De reiziger wordt zodoende ondergedompeld in prikkelende, zintuiglijke ervaringen en de eindeloosheid van haar verbeeldingskracht. Zij ervaart voor de eerste keer sensaties zoals smaak, slaap en een gevoel van verlangen voor een terugkeer naar de sterren.’

 

De installatie van Sjuul Joosen, getiteld SOLO – Een Aardse herinnering, stelt een surrealistische wereld voor waar verscheidene plekken, tijdlijnen en zintuiglijke sensaties samensmelten tot een alternatieve realiteit. 

De film zal elk heel uur opnieuw afspelen. Doordeweeks is de tentoonstelling tevens op afspraak te bezoeken.

Gerealiseerd met ondersteuning van het Mondriaan Fonds, Stroom Den Haag en See Lab.

Forgotten Artworks exhibition
Additionally, there was the opportunity to view the group show 'Forgotten Artworks' in our project space, which had contributions from all See Lab members. The exhibition encapsulated a celebration of all the creative work that was left unseen in our studios - works that had been tucked away and stumbled upon after a long time.
