Foto Expositie: Ooggetuigen van de gaswinning

Ooggetuigen van de Gaswinning (Eyewitnesses of Gas Extraction) is an oral history project that records the personal stories of people involved in Groningen's gas extraction and its consequences. In extensive filmed interviews, residents, professionals and others share their experiences from a wide range of perspectives. The project is an initiative of Diepduik Media and is carried out together with various social, cultural and knowledge institutions. The interviews are permanently preserved at the Groninger Archieven and made available to a wide audience through Filmbank Groningen. In this way, these personal stories are kept for future generations. Photographer Marieke Kijk in de Vegte has been part of the Ooggetuigen van de Gaswinning history project from the start. In her own distinctive way, she portrays every eyewitness.
