'From Here To There,' begins at VROOM in Anderlecht where Olivier Schrauwen's large scale drawings hang on display, embodying the monumental magnitude of his art. His drawings stand belong side his novels, specifically his 472-page epic, 'Sunday,'. One must look beyond the gallery walls and into the technical partnership that brought it to life. The following report captures an intimate evening at Passa Porta, where Schrauwen and Colorama founder, Johanna Maerski, reveal the evolution of their collaboration. From a spontaneous 2019 email to a meticulously printed Risograph masterpiece. By exploring the "unbearably" slow motion pace of a single mundane day, their conversation highlights how the duo transformed the banal into a landmark achievement for the international avant-garde scene.
