Sound / Listening Walk on the land and forest of the former island Schokland in the Netherlands.

Since 1990, Stefaan Van Biesen has documented his walks through drawings, evolving into installations, texts, videos, and photographs. Collaborating with writer Geert Vermeire for over 20 years, they merge walking, writing, and drawing, emphasizing collective creation. Their lecture/performance invites participants to co-create evolving works through walking and dialogue.

"Tell Me Your Name" is a performative walk by Stefaan van Biesen and Geert Vermeire, for The Walking Body, inviting locals to poetically name wild plants. Through personal reflection and garden-style nameplates, participants challenge the notion of "weeds," fostering care for all living beings and deepening awareness of plant perception and communication.

Saturday March 29th we will walk in Amsterdam North to see and draw the changing light during the partial solar eclipse. Visual artist and teacher Liesje van den Berk guides and challenges you with short drawing exercises.

We welcome participants to join us (in-person or on a section of roadway of your choosing) for a series of Dead on the Road (DOR) 2-mile walks as part of Street Road Artists Space and their Near Dweller series of exhibitions.

Join us on Zoom to hear all about how you can get involved with the UK-wide coastal arts festival, Beach of Dreams’ Dawn Chorus celebration
