'The woods that see and hear' is an exhibition of contemporary art at dertien hectare (13 ha), a former farm that is now a regenerating forest area. The exhibition responds to the immediate surroundings of dertien hectare, in the south of the Netherlands, an area that has gone through significant social, economic and ecological changes in recent decades. For the exhibition, with artworks from Dutch and international artists, Overtreders W designed a hospitality space, Sliced Stable.


With Sliced Stable, we wanted to re-erect an icon of the Brabant landscape, the barn, and give it a new function. The pavilion contains a bar, a small library and a long table where 28 people can eat, drink, talk, read and observe the surrounding landscape. Sliced Stable was made of wood, shrink film and recycled furniture parts.
