Domus

Stacked and secured, a safe haven.

Catharina van de Ven is an artist who explores the theme of home and safety in her work. In one of her pieces, a blanket from the fifties designed by Jan Kollau is cut, stacked, and secured, creating a safe haven that represents the warmth and comfort of home. In these challenging times, such as the global lockdown, we all long for a reliable base where we can feel at ease, no matter where we are. Through her art, Catharina reminds us of the importance of finding that sense of safety and security, whether it be through physical objects or emotional connections.
