FIVE-POINTED STAR
EEN KIND, EEN BAL EN EEN BEWEGING
by Annick van Santen
You would be forgiven for thinking that all learning happened in the head, but this is not true, it is very much rooted in a child’s physical experiences in the world, which are evident from their earliest days…
– Sally Goddard Blythe
The project een kind een bal en een beweging is a research both on the motoric development of children as well as participatory methods.
Specifically, Annick collaborated with a therapist who works with children that face learning- behavioural questions. During several therapy sessions she documented the participants (with their permission), and in doing so developed a new research method referred to as: Participant Documentation.
Crawling, rolling and marching around. These are rhythmic movements preformed repeatedly. This happens to ensure that the central nervous system develops further, so children learn optimally and can use their talents fully.
Een kind, een bal en een beweging contains a research document, a video loop, four prints and three flip-books.

Chrysalid Gallery
Chrysalid is a dynamic cocoon aiming at transforming the canons around contemporary art and its market. It’s a conceptual and experimental gallery based in Rotterdam (the Netherlands) that actively promotes and collaborates with young and daring artists from all over Europe. As a communal platform, Chrysalid wants to give the artists room to experiment, to grow in their vision and to fearlessly portrait reality through the insight of their unique practices. In this metamorphic framework, the individuals behind the idea of the gallery collaborate to reshape and broaden the narratives in contemporary art, making them more inclusive and representative of the multitude of details that existence is made of. Chrysalid is not a showbox. Chrysalid is a pulsating core of transformative energy.
