Hannah van Binsbergen

The Land of Kokanje, also known as Luilekkerland, is a fairyland of plenty. But the road to get there is long and full of obstacles, because it cuts right through our daily lives. When people struggle to stay alive, they make up their own utopia. Not a spiritual ideal of what paradise should be, but a place that fits what people want. Where the roast pigeons fly into your mouth and the cakes grow on the trees.

In this collection, Van Binsbergen takes worldly pleasures seriously, opting for need and pleasure. Abundance is possible, but we have to fight for it.
