De Onkruidenier

Artists

In their collaborative practice, De ­Onkruidenier, ­Jonmar van Vlijmen and Ronald Boer ­explore forms of symbiosis between the ­cultural and the natural world. Their practice focusses on wild plants in nature, giving them new meaning in our daily lives, and acting as foraging grocers. Through on-site ­fieldwork and ­research, their ­artistic practice develops new ­interpretations of the ­relationship between human and nature, ­transforming familiar everyday actions of classifying, ­cultivating, preparing and consuming of plants into experiential ­narratives.
