Video work by Lars Siltberg at Playground in Stuk, Leuven
Playground returns with a third edition showcasing a series of performances, projects and installations by visual artists, theatre makers and choreographers who offer a unique view on contemporary society. Artists no longer set their artistic activities in terms of traditional disciplines and combine media such as performance, installation, film and interactive work.
