What is normal and what is abnormal?
Already after the first brainstorms with specialists it became clear to us that the boundary between normal and abnormal is not always clear. One in four Dutch people need psychiatric assistance. What is crazy or normal differs per person, per culture and per time period. It was clear that only displaying the collection doesn’t do justice in any way to the complexity and urgency of the subject. A visit to the museum should be more about personal stories and individual encounters and less about objects.
