A few months ago, I wanted to visit a friend in Amsterdam. I hadn't seen her in a long time and was exited to go and meet her. Unfortunately, public transportation in the Netherlands isn't always as reliable and ofcourse just on the day that I wanted to travel, the train broke down!
Before my journey even begun, I couldn't go any further and ended up in Apeldoorn.
I remembered they had an awesome museum there, called: CODA, where I visited the exhibition about Carli Hermes (see blogpost here) and I decided to go there instead.
This time they had an exhibition called: "Sounds of Silence". The exhibition offers visitors the opportunity to escape the noise of daily life and to enjoy the silence in contemporary visual art. It shows the work of 15 artists from the Netherlands and abroad and makes the sensation of deafening silence visible and audible in a unique way.
Above, I've selected three of those 15 artists, who I believe captured the essence of Silence in a different way than you would suggest. By looking at these sculptures, photo's and paintings you can almost hear the sounds that are associated with these events.
After all, it was a relaxing day and I met some great new people. Sometimes, bad luck or a wrong turn brings you to the most amazing places!
