The Fen-fire

Overview

Erik van Lieshout worked in Deurne Peel on the project 'De Gloeiige' (2024) in which he investigates the gap between city and countryside. Politics, craft, land art and myths of the landscape are intertwined in a raw montage. For the shooting of the film, Van Lieshout returned to his native village of Deurne and spent a year there. In addition to filming, he also made sculptures of eggs and the almost five-meter-high rabbit made of hay
