Have you seen the rain? Have you watched the rain?
Rain provides water for many types of ecosystems. But it can also get us wet and be very unpredictable. The emotional relationships between the rain and humans are often complicated.
Experience the rain in a new way, at the space "Rain" Watchers.
*Opening Hours and Guided Tours/Workshops*
As an outdoor space, it's open to the public at all times. Feel free to go there, sit down, look up, and explore the movements of the trees, the rain, and the environment with all your senses any time, and find surprise in any weather condition.
During Dutch Design Week, there will be some guided tours from the designer.

Look up, and feel what's around: let's watch the rain, and more than the rain!
Locating in the terrain De Grote Beek of the mental health institution GGzE, a space called “rain” is for you to experience the rain, and more than the rain, from watching to all senses.
When you enter the space, or just think about it, time becomes raining, after the rain and waiting for the rain.
While raining, sitting in the installation, looking up, you will see water drops transforming into a view you have never seen, from the subtle interaction between humans and nature. You also experience it with smell, sound, touch, and more. From the experience, people can live in the moment of now and practice the freedom of letting go of control. People can take a break from running/thinking or using language. It's also a special way to connect to another person by sharing this special experience.
In any weather condition, at any time, just by being there, and taking a rest, surprises from nature always come.
As a deep and long-term collaboration with GGzE, we take tours around this space with clients, employees, and citizens in mixed groups. We share the same goal of inviting and guiding people to explore nature as a healing environment.
