This 38th edition of the yearly festival brings together artists, writers and poets in the Belgian village of Watou, near the French border, under the thematic <em>On Longing and Consolation<\/em>. The essay <em>Het wankele evenwicht van het verlangen<\/em> (<em>The unstable balance of desire<\/em>) by writer and poet Bernard Dewulf forms the starting point and inspiration for the selected participants. To accompany the above essay, Dewulf wrote an additional essay on consolation.<\/p>\n<p>Robine Clignett shows a work from 2008 that was inspired by a voyage to the Outer Hebrides, the group of islands off the north west cost of Scotland. The work evokes the shimmer of two distant lights reflected in a quiet lake.<\/p>\n<p>Visitors of the festival can follow a route mapped through the village in order to view artworks, attend performances, participate in happenings and other events.<\/p>\n<p>Artfestival Watou, Belgium<br \/>\n30 June &#8211; 2 September<br \/>\nmore info at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kunstenfestivalwatou.be\/nl\/pagina\/221\/home.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.kunstenfestivalwatou.be<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robine Clignett shows one work on paper in the 38th edition of Festival Watou, this year dedicated to longing and consolation. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11234,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[509],"tags":[167],"class_list":["post-10822","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-2018","tag-robine-clignett-en","category-509","description-off"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 -
