From an early age, artist Lida van der Vlist has been fascinated by the hidden beauty that lies in old objects. Her collection started with objects she came across by chance, later on Lida also started scavenging. Selecting this material - collected for years and years - stimulated a need in her to give new life to these objects. She decided to literally give them a new face, which led to the creation of her 'Familiar faces'.
The works of art are no longer together with their creator. But in this retrospective the 'Familiar faces' are brought together again like in a family album.
