In a time where many people are on the run, the feeling of dislocation and being lost is not a rare sentiment. We all sometimes feel lost and insecure. Out of place or simply out of tune with our surroundings.
Olo restaurant is connected to the Swedish embassy. On the Swedish wall there is an artwork dedicated to the Finnish children who were adopted by Swedish people to keep them safe during world war 2.
Based on this story, Marije Vogelzang created an experience that is linking to our current time. More than ever we have to trust whilst being scared. We have to connect and hold on while we feel ripped apart and we have to create space and time for lost souls.
The experience is a subtle, multi sensorial ritual that touches our inner child. Combining flavours with words, sound and touch the experience gives the visitor a space to reflect on perception and what it is that makes us human.
