Circus andersom
Disruptive Connection
Disruptive Connection, that's what Circus Andersom brings. This artists' collective is an initiative of Esmé Calis, Martijn Engelbregt, and Allard Medema, under the management of Linda Koene. By creating physical and mental space, Circus Andersom invites you to wake up and dream! With direct, disarming work forms, they reassure you and challenge you. In doing so, the collective does not hesitate to provoke and to amaze. Experience for yourself how Circus Andersom invites you at Blikopener to look with fresh eyes at what are commonly considered assumptions about our food and our soil.
Reis naar de Aarde
In the co-creation project Reis naar de Aarde the Circus Andersom artists' collective embarks on a journey to the basics along with farmers from Groningen. To the origin of everything and where food emerges: the Earth. How do we, as food producers, treat the Earth? And what influence can you, as a consumer, exert?
The Ommelander streekmarkt serves as the starting point for this artistic exploration. We engage in encounters and travel to the origin of products. From which soil does our food originate? How can we make visible the earth on which the products grow at the Ommelander market? And how can farmers working in alternative ways make an impact? At Blikopener Festival, you will experience the answer to all these questions in a special market stall full of earth rituals.
