The New Garden according to Nobirs

For the past three months, the Rotterdam-based tattoo artist and painter Nobir has been creating works inspired by The New Garden. ⁠

In the winter of 2021, the garden was redesigned due to the restructuring of Museumpark. In the coming year, artists will create work inspired by the ecological restoration of the garden and its relationship to visitors. ⁠

As the first artist, Nobirs felt that the garden was not getting the appreciation it deserves yet. For example, he occasionally saw a traffic sign in the water and found litter on a regular basis. Nobirs researched the interaction between the garden and humans. Can these two exist together in Museumark where so much is happening and so much growth is taking place? He explores these questions in a series of paintings.
