After finishing my successful internship at museum Het Markiezenhof, we decided to keep working together during my graduation project. "Voor wie het Zien wil" is the result.
"Voor wie het Zien wil" tells the first few steps of fictional, but theoretically plausible history of the oldest complete pair of glasses ever found in the Netherlands. The project continues in the museum's "secrets" theme introduced during the tapestry project and gives a viewer a peek into the secret shameful thoughts of a clergyman, by having the viewer literally look through pairs of these historical glasses to see the story's hidden core.
As my graduation project, "Voor wie het Zien wil" combines storytelling with the unique, the modern and the old, using technology and pairing it with medieval style illustrations to tell its story.
"Voor wie het Zien wil" in action
"Voor wie het Zien wil" went through a long process of experimentation, both in technique and in storytelling.
After graduation, it would grow and improve, telling the full story, as part of the permanent collection of Het Markiezenhof.
