Tijs Rooijakkers & The Ruggeds – Feel the Vibe

Project ‘Feel the Vibe at Eindhoven Airport’ TIJS ROOIJAKKERS x THE RUGGEDS https://www.theruggeds.com/feel-the-vibe Eindhoven Airport, decided to showcase what our region has to offer to the 6,7 million passengers that visit the airport every year. Together with the Van Abbe Museum they look for interesting combinations of local artists that could showcase some of their work. And not just anywhere: Designer Piet Hein Eek created 3 exposition spaces for the main square of the airport. To kick off the project, they asked us to collaborate with Tijs Rooijakkers a visual artist, who creates ‘still standing movement’. We came up with the idea to ‘capture motion’, by covering ourselves in paint and dancing on a wooden floor. Tijs then set this floor in motion with his signature style, expressing the energy of our movement.
