Recycle X

The Patching Zone and Noordkaap

Recycle X is a cooporation project of Noordkaap and The Zone Patching that started in January 2010 and was launched in the Voorstraat in Dordrecht.

A team of five artists / designers live and worked for seven months in the street and invites residents, shop owners and visitors for a series of workshops and do-it-yourself design processes and experiences.

Recycle X seeks to make an artistically critical contribution to the redevelopment of one of the shopping streets in Dordrecht into the main cultural axis for the city. For Recycle X we worked together with our partner The Patching Zone (evolving from V2_Rotterdam). This project runed from januari 2010 till september 2010. The MA students selected by The Patching Zone lived and worked in the specific shopping street and Noordkaap organised a series of projects in this context.

Participators Noordkaap: Gilberto Esparza (Mexico City), Johannes Brechter (Munich) and Kitchen Budapest (Budapest).

RE-X team: Javier Busturia (ES), Jingni Wang (CN), Ricardo Nascimento de Oliveira (BR), Jelle Dekker (NL) and Zeljko Blace (HR)

Recycle X was made possible thanks to: Trivire, VSB Fund, Stichting Doen, SNS Reaalfonds and the Prins Bernhard Cultuur fonds.
