Mural
A mural in Rotterdam West, commissioned by Havensteder 
Size: 8x4 meters. Photos by Xaviera Altena and me.






In the neighborhood of Tussendijken, in Rotterdam West. A place that could use a bit more color. This mural offers a playful interruption to the street. It’s a warm, welcoming piece that gives passersby a chance to pause and imagine their own story, as if they could step right in and explore a world of their own making.

Celebrating Dutch landscape architect Mien Ruys (1904 - 1999).⁣

Mien Ruys is not a familiar name to most people. But for architects, artists, and garden enthusiasts, Mien Ruys is an icon. She was the only female landscape architect of her time; a conceptual artist who collaborated with Rietveld, Bonnema, and Mondriaan. She revolutionized the concept of gardens and gardening and was the major inspiration for the internationally renowned landscape architect Piet Oudolf.⁣
