How do you cope with grief when the world keeps turning?
What if loss brings you to a standstill while everything around you keeps moving? At the opening of the exhibition 'Delivered: Emotional Baggage’ we open the conversation about a theme that everyone encounters: grief.
Programme
We will start at 15:00 with the impressive mini-documentary Grief is love in a heavy coat, which explores coping with loss. After the screening, there will be a discussion with Tatjana Almuli, author of the book Ik zal je nooit meer and a member of the documentary's cast; and Ramona Verhoek, founder of Stichting The Mourning.
Tatjana and Ramona provide an intimate look into their own experiences, which resonate with the stories of the youth from The Crash Club, whose experiences led to the exhibition 'Bagage Bezorgd’. Their experiences with grief, both comforting and confronting, are woven into the exhibition, as seen in the broken dishes that reflect their stories.
On this day, the exhibition 'Delivered: Emotional Baggage’ will be exceptionally displayed in the atrium. On other days, the exhibition can be visited in the hallway next to the library until February 14.
Participation is free, but we do ask you to register:
