Walking and drawing: the changing landscape of Buikslotermeerplein

Drawalk

On Saturday 26 October we will draw the landscape of Buikslotermeerplein. Visual artist and teacher Liesje van den Berk guides and challenges you with short drawing exercises.

We will walk in and around the shopping centre. We will look and draw from different perspectives. For example, we stand in the middle of the shopping public, but we also look at and from the surroundings of Buikslotermeerplein.We also listen and feel the architecture in our environment and record these observations on paper with graphite pencil.

No drawing experience is necessary for this drawing walk. And the drawing materials are provided.

Walking is a way to experience the richness of your environment and make contact with each other. During the walks you will discover new nature, images, places and stories about your neighborhood by looking and listening.

plodge

The Scottish and English word plodging has been wading through the lexical muck and mire since the late 1700s, and it refers to icky, slow, molasses-type walking. Plodge is probably a variation of plod. This word isn’t totally out of use, as a 1995 use from British magazine The Countryman illustrates: “Northbound Pennine Wayfarers, plodging through the interminable peat-bogs of the North Pennines.” Even if you have a spring in your step, it’s tough to skip merrily through the peat-bogs.
