In pictures: Highlight Delft

Last weekend, the Innovative art & technology festival Highlight Delft took place. During a walkable route of exhibitions spread through Delft, visitors explored this year’s theme ‘Do you see what I see’.

Delta attended and captured some of these interactive highlights.

As these visitors descended the station stairs into the central hall, they were met with Designer Richard Vijgen’s exhibit ‘View Beneath Delft’. A panoramic screen displayed a subterranean view of Delft using a selection of soil analyses from TerraIndex's vast database. (Photo: Oscar Greenwell)
