Lookout is a socially engaged creative process in which different ‘cultures’ meet and mix. The aim was to set thinking in motion – among the young people who built the hunting lookout, among everyone else involved, and among the visitors who experience the whole – rather than to judge on aesthetics alone.
Gregory, Kevin, Marc, Stijn and Timmy, fifth-year woodwork students at PISO, built the lookout together after joint consultation. Their direct involvement lowers the threshold to contemporary art: the young people ask themselves questions about art and cultural experience, an incentive to think beyond the traditional studio.
