PARENTHESIS

George Verberg Stipend, 2024

George Verberg Stipend Exhibition (solo)
Koepelzaal, 2024

In January 2023 Jildau Nijboer won the George Verberg Stipend. With the support of this stipend she travelled through the Baltics to research the view inside out in Soviet Flats in several Baltic cities. She temporarily inhabited flats in Vilnius, Lentvaris, Riga, Liepaja, and Tallinn.

Looking from her window, Jildau Nijboer noticed the old Soviet playgrounds. These specific playgrounds, their history and the topic of innocence and playfulness in this historical context became part of her research.
Seeking for a dialogue and exchange between inside and outside spaces in this still environment, she created site-specific work in different neighbourhoods in the three Baltic countries. A series of photographs and video works led to creating a reflective and spatial exhibition back in the Netherlands.

In April 2024 Jildau Nijboer presented her solo exhibition in the Koepelzaal; the former Natuur Museum hall, part of the FMI Master’s Institute in Groningen.
