About the artist
Liefde voor de Stad
Liefde voor de Stad participated at GLOW for the first time during the lockdown. As a makers collective Isis Boot, Laurie Roijackers, Marijn Smits and Luuk Thijssen developed the concept of the Schaduworgel from various different backgrounds . They all normally focus individually on different topics but have now joined forces under the banner of Liefde voor de Stad.The city is a huge source of inspiration for us. It is the reason that Liefde voor de Stad exists, and it brought us together as a collective. This mission and inspiration are perfect for GLOW. It challenges us to tell the story of the city of light in our own way, namely using light (and shadow). It inspires and provides unique opportunities for telling the story differently than we normally would and to make it accessible for a wider audience in Eindhoven – and its visitors.’
The Liefde voor de Stad initiative strives to connect residents of Eindhoven across the generations with their love for the city. Liefde voor de Stad has organised annual activities since 2015. The motivation behind the network is bringing together different people, backgrounds and ages, so that knowledge, stories and experiences are shared and transferred. In doing so, the city remains connected to its past, present and future.
