HET EILAND / THE ISLAND
The view from the studio of visual artist Machteld Aardse is a curious plot of land, belonging to Twente University, the Netherlands. One day, the plants, once placed by ecologist Louis G. le Roy, are cut down to make way for a heap of sand. Then, a laboratory for nanotechnology arises.
