11-10-2025 - In the museum café of the Polderhuis in Westkapelle, the photo exhibition by Nina Passenier can be visited free of charge until March 19, 2026. Play between contrast and alienation Nina (20) comes from Westkapelle, where the surroundings often influence her work. After studying photography for three years, she continues her creative development at the art academy in Rotterdam. In her photography, Nina explores how people relate to each other and to their environment. For this exhibition, she presents photos from different series in which she examines the play between contrast and alienation by placing the everyday in an unexpected context. This results in images that feel both familiar and strange at the same time — unexpected encounters between people and objects within a recognizable environment. With this approach, Nina invites the viewer to look differently at what seems self-evident and to rediscover the ordinary with a fresh perspective.

12-04-2025 - Starting from April 12, 2025, the photo exhibition “Here Comes the Flood” by Rem van den Bosch will be on display on the first floor of the Polderhuis Museum in Westkapelle. The Water is Coming In this art project by photographer Rem van den Bosch, the effects of climate change and rising sea levels are made visible in a unique way. He photographed iconic locations across the country. In large-scale images, models stand on red staircases, using their hands to indicate how high the water would rise without dikes and delta works. These confronting images do not depict a future scenario, but the current reality. The exhibition travels through various cities in the Netherlands and Flanders, making the urgency of water safety tangible. More Information The exhibition is on display at the museum.
