Ka(a)te Dejonckheere: D_N’T FA_L AP_RT, DO_’T BE C_NSPIC_OUS
Eighteen young Flemish and Dutch authors have taken inspiration from seventeenth-century artefacts from the Rijksmuseum. Looking at these objects, what eureka moments do they see? Ka(a)te Dejonckheere wrote a poem about the shards of ceramic bowls and lids from the Dutch East India ship ‘Witte Leeuw’. ‘we hope you know that maybe it isn’t even yours, this story’
