Since Wednesday 26th Gais and Dalata seem to have their hands itching. What they never did before, now already turned into a colorful experiment on the ground of the Westergasfabriek.

The experiment is a cooperation between the Affordable Art Fair which is taking place between the 26th and the 30th of October, the Westergasfabriek and R.U.A. It was quite a hassle to find out which paint would hold for a nice period in rain and with people walking over it. It had to be biodegradable and easy to remove. We found it! Eco-Logic paint with a basis of linseed oil.

While Gais and Dalata started with the first blocks of colors, trespassers already would enthusiastically ask if they could participate. That was exactly what we wanted to provoke. In Dutch we would say: “Doe is gek and grab roller…!” let yourself go and paint something. In the end it is not everyday that you can paint the floor in public space.

The painting turned out to be a good “baby-sitting” momentum for parents who accidentally stumbled upon the work while passing by and kids insisting to participate. The parents ended up on the terrace of West Pacific for a relaxing moment in the afternoon sun. What else could you wish for?
