With his foundation In Lijn (In Line), Stijn Schenk provides insight in difficult and delicate topics through the art of drawing. In the frame of the bigger project WIJ MANNEN (WE MEN) artist Gijs Kast together with Stijn Schenk interviewed three men who lost their position, thus a big part of their identity. Divorce, sickness, unemployment or homelessness shattered their self image. The animation rise – collapse portrays the downfall and loss, and at the same time lays bare the freedom that comes with the rediscovery of one self, beyond the smothering expectations of society of being a man.
