The entrance of the King

The staging of a historical parade. A parade based on Stien Eelsingh’s first community-art project in the Netherlands, a mural in primary school The Pigeon-coop in Meppel. The parade was held on the 6th of June by the Haveltermade district.
Next to that, we’ve held interviews with people living in this district. We’ve shot images based on these interviews. It appeared that few people leave this neighbourhood, that there is a lot of community solidarity, as well as a large number of dogs and birds, and that it is not possible for children to play in the streets any more.
