Series "Schiedam - The Town Hall's Shadow"

Mixed Media on Canvas - 60x80cms
In the heart of the city, the grand town hall stands tall, its clock ticking away the hours. Though bustling by day, it takes on a different aura at night. When the streets are quiet, some say the building whispers with the voices of past councils and decisions that shaped the city. On certain evenings, just as the clock strikes midnight, a faint light flickers in the upper windows, even though the hall has been closed for hours. Passersby have reported glimpsing shadowy figures moving behind the curtains—ghostly outlines of former city leaders, still debating the fate of Schiedam long after their time. The clock ticks on, steady and constant, as if reminding the city that while time moves forward, the history within the town hall never truly fades away.
