Jeroen Jongeleen, Running In Circles - Polderland, 2024.
New Dutch Horizons, a 200-meter-long art gallery in Schiphol Airport, where 19 Dutch artists share their vision of their homeland’s nature and culture.
For this video work, Jeroen Jongeleen ran in circles for days, repeatedly jumping over a ditch reminiscent of a horizon. This video takes place in the rigidly framed farmlands just outside of Rotterdam. He wants to show not only the great physical effort, but also the sense of play and joy of crossing all those layers in the landscape.
