Judith Westerveld (presentation and work)
Someone’s mother tongue / Iemands moedertaal

Judith (NL / South Africa) has done research in language centres in Amsterdam-Noord for people, who are either for a short or long stay in the Netherlands, with diverse backgrounds. During her research process, she uses construction and deconstruction; decay of meaning and well-defined concepts. The image is an echo of the learning process of a new language, of the preservation of the mother tongue and the way in which these inevitably become intertwined
