Annelou van Griensven - Tea Table detail
Annelou van Griensven is fascinated by everyday ‘invisible realities’; eccentric people, urban locations or worrisome operating statuses. In short: extreme situations which most people avoid. She makes modern society’s rough edges perceptible which leads to understanding and acceptance of these situations. Photography and design play a key role in the questioning and visualization of Van Griensven’s topics. She often collaborates with designers from various disciplines to meet her goals. With this project she collaborated with her brother and furniture designer Joep van Griensven. Read More…
