‘Tripple Sculpture : Hillegom : 2012 

Three sculptures in the town of Hillegom. A new road was being constructed, right through the centre of town. Three sculptures would be placed along this new road. The town is in the middle of the world famous ‘bollenstreek’, the area where the Dutch tulip-fields have powered the local economy for centuries on end. It came as no surprise the council wanted the sculptures to be somehow connected to the ‘raison d’etre’ of it’s town: the flowerbulb. A pot, a house, and a flowerbulb change places, one inside the other.
