Since the closing ceremony in Museum De Lakenhal, the cloth has been hanging, made by many hands, as a silent witness to a community art project that was carried out with much love and care. The historical research, the queest for the right techniques, the reuse of materials and the interest in the people who worked with them: in everything that Nina and Sara did, there is an honest involvement with people and their environment. From that involvement, Van Kade tot Zelfkant tells the story of Leiden as a city of textiles and migrants in its own unique way, as a shared experience about Leiden, its history and our future.
