Over fifteen years this terrain has collected countless shared stories that make a place feel like home. In their designs, the fifteen makers reimagine the letterbox as a place to send and receive them, each one its own way of holding a memory.

Letterbox

It’s all in transition. That’s what drives, inspires, scares and saves us. For that we need anchor points. Vaults for our emotions and crafts. Some would call it a studio, others an office, atelier or workplace. Some call it home. For people these vaults have doors. For other weighty matters there is another entrance. A gateway of conversations, where the past meets the present. A source of great expectation or life-changing messages. A device to question broader systems of distribution and ownership.

This exhibition celebrates the transition of Sectie-C. Specially selected voices from the terrain’s former and current inhabitants share their ephemeral heritage. Shaped by success, failure, movement and stability. Their personal vision on a common subject, gathered from across the world.

A meeting point for people who may never directly encounter one another, becomes a fine balance between clarity and unexpectedness. Questioning connection, belonging and keeping something precious safe. Nestled in the walls, freestanding on the streets, or hanging overhead like nests in a tree. How do you envision…letterbox?

About Stichting Sectie-C

Sectie-C is a former factory site in Eindhoven where more than 800 artists, designers and craftspeople have their studios. Here, something is always being welded, hammered, moulded or painted. What you find here is work in progress. During DDW we open every door and show you what goes on the rest of the year. In 2026 we turn fifteen years old.
