Summary

In this publication, multidisciplinary artist Wim Wauman presents the results of his artistic doctoral research on the tension between art and (traditional) craftsmanship 'Making Waves: A Play with Arts and Crafts.' The author sought (and found?) A learning path ( skill in applications with wood veneer), in collaborations, brainwashing, and in increased (personal) engagement which ultimately led to the experimental 'Blauwhaus' complex. At first sight an installation / exhibition designed to work with a 'dream team' of guest artists, but also a purifying 'twilight zone' that was created to create a creative 'flow' and stimulate the imagination.00Wauman compiled the (Blauwhaus) GetijdenBook Book of Tides, in which a selection of his own recent artworks and projects is documented, supplemented with new Dutch or English texts (including hermetic pieces of prose, free verses and letters), a whimsical 'FenceCrossPhilosophy', an encyclopedic-Wikileaks section and 'A Play with Arts and Crafts'. The book also contains a Dutch poem by Leen Huet and illustrated reports on the interventions of dream team employees such as Alice McCabe, Hadewych Becuwe & Kelly Schacht, Hilde Borgermans, Ilse Van Roy, Isabel Bouttens, Maria Degrève, Pieter Léon Vermeersch, Robbert & Frank Frank & Robbert, Veerle Verschooren and Warre Mulder.
