TANDRU - Raluca Croitoru
8 November 2024 – 8 Maart 2025
TANDRU is een kunstinstallatie van Raluca Croitoru die de complexe en bijzondere dynamiek van vriendschap onderzoekt. Geïnspireerd door de fysieke en emotionele aspecten van menselijke relaties, biedt Croitoru een reflectie op hoe vriendschappen kunnen dienen als model voor verbinding en samenwerking in een bredere sociale context.
De kern van TANDRU is de videoprojectie A language that is felt (2023), waarin de dynamiek van vriendschap wordt verkend via choreografie, beweging en aanraking. In deze video, tot stand gekomen in samenwerking met
WET (https:wetfilm.org), zoomt Croitoru in op de subtiele nuances van vriendschappen. Lichaamsbewegingen, texturen en geluiden worden gecombineerd om een intieme sfeer te creëren die uitnodigt tot reflectie.
De video is geprojecteerd op semi-transparante gordijnen, die spelen met ideeën van openheid en privacy.
De installatie creëert een gelaagd visueel spel van licht en schaduw, vult de ruimte en laat het werk van buitenaf zien. Naast de video omvat de installatie een reeks analoge foto’s en pasteltekeningen die zijn afgedrukt op dunne stoffen.
De stoffen hangen losjes in de ruimte, waardoor bezoekers zich erdoorheen kunnen bewegen en interactie aangaan.
T/m 8 maart 2025 staat er een aanvullend randprogramma op de agenda waarbij de thematiek van TANDRU centraal staat. TANDRU is elke zaterdag en zondagavond te zien vanaf de straatzijde en te ervaren gedurende
het aanvullende randprogramma.
TANDRU is mede mogelijk gemaakt door het CBK Rotterdam, Opzoomer Mee en WOLk.

"Heal All"is an artist's researchToine Klaassen in
collaboration with WOLk. In this research he searches for materials and objects that reflect the perception of time and environment. By changing and rearranging them, he gives them new meaning. This creates new rituals and space for reflection. “Heal All” will take place in and around WOLk from end of March 2024. As a result of the research, the artist is developing an art installation that fills the WOLk space, together with four interactive performances that will take place both indoors and outdoors. An open, additional and accessible peripheral program is created with people from the neighborhood and the community of program makers that fits in with the research theme.
On view from January 20 to mid-July 2023 during the continuous program offering and the programming that ties in with the art installation.
With the project 'Charlois en de Sterren', Rogier Arents and Roel Lutkenhaus investigate the Charloisse socials.
