Esther Kokmeijer
Deep Meaning of Voyaging
Admire the traditional Marshallese outrigger canoe built by Esther Kokmeijer together with Henrik Richter and Isocker Anwell (canoe builder from the Mashall Islands). The aim is to set off projects about the sea, climate change, the importance of traditional knowledge and a deeper connection with our natural environment. What can we learn about a more sustainable relationship with nature? And will this spark more solidarity with the landscape?
