The timetable for Home Bound has been announced!

Every day from 14 to 23 May, starting at 12:00, the artists will welcome various communities to share stories and knowledge and work on the artwork together. Moroccan carpet weavers, Utrecht bell ringers from the Dom, Surinamese rope makers; they will all be contributing to the artwork for one or more days.

Creative producer Charlotte Verhoef, who is linking the project to Utrecht via the SPRING festival: “We’ve been preparing this with Luke and Daniel for months now, and it’s absolutely fascinating. We’ve really taken a deep dive into the lives of people who dedicate their identity and their lives to their relationship with rope. It’s amazing how many directions you can go with rope! Things I’m really looking forward to include, for example, the Shibari expert, who’s bringing her bondage practice along. That comes from the fetish scene, but it’s also a genuine art form – absolutely beautiful. She’ll be doing a ‘rope jam’, for instance, where people can be tied up. It’s going to be very playful in any case. We’re going to do monkey bars with athletes, there’ll be a joint knitting day with various knitting communities, but also, for example, a circus performance with ropes.”
