Fransje Killaars in BlowUp Art

For the open air exhibition BlowUp Art, Fransje Killaars reimagines her signature colour fields into a large-scale inflatable sculpture that energizes the historic avenue Lange Voorhout in The Hague. Her piece, All Colours Are Free, is both sensory and monumental—celebrating colour as a carrier of emotion, movement, and rhythm. The concept builds on her earlier work 24 Hours, part of the Bonnefantenmuseum Maastricht collection. That piece features stacked stretchers draped in bi-colored woven blankets, arranged in ascending height. For BlowUp Art, she evolves this idea, enveloping the inflatable structure in vivid textiles with geometric patterns. Colourful ribbons flutter in the breeze, adding a gentle, playful dimension to the vibrant installation.

The BlowUp Art works are exhibited from May 10 till June 11, and are part of Voorhout Monumentaal, featuring sculptures and 3d works at the Lange Voorhout which lasts till August 18. The Open Pavillion of Marcel Pinas initiated by West Den Haag on Lange Voorhout serves as a platform for discussion and dialogue.
