Jessica van Deusen | The Great Health
Dionysos, the mythical protector of the wilderness, inspired Nietzsche to the idea of “Die Grosse Gesundheit”, in which a society is transience, destruction, disgust, madness, chaos, intense sexual drive, suffering, pain, death, fear, and insecurity, embraces as valuable qualities and considers them as necessary components for a natural balance in life.

This year Witte Rook connects artists by offering them a joint working period. Artists have their own workplace, but there is room to work together.
During his residence at Witte Rook, Daniel Arthuus transformed his space into a space of reverence for the primitive. Inspired by science, philosophy and religion, Daniel searches for the origin of man and immerses the visitor in an animal world. A world without respect for the ideas of a god.
He also invites everyone for cocktails with gold leaf, cake and sweets to toast our perception of reality. This festive occasion will take place outside this chamber of reverence. Daniel seeks the dialogue between the installation and the outer space, examining the relationship between his convictions of a wicked world and the reality in which he lives with his need to celebrate life.
