Repair as a beginning

A floating artwork exploring repair, resilience and connection. Created for the theme Mankement als motor, the project treats imperfection as a source of invention rather than something to conceal.

The Papiamentu title carries a spirit of continual mending and improvisation: finding ways forward together through making, reusing and connecting.
