Illah van Oijen

Born in Netherlands, in 1981. Studied Cultural Sciences at the Free University Amsterdam and photography at the Royal Academy of Arts in The Haag. She moved from Haag to Bratislava in 2005. As part of the project human landscapes, she published two photography books about Slovakia’s cities Bratislava and Kosice where she documented rapid transformation and modernization of public spaces, willing to provide a platform for discussion and reflection on the impact of these changes. What is the identity of these two biggiest cities of Slovakia, how they deal with the buildings of socialism? And commercialism? Who are the people from Bratislava and Kosice and how they interact with their environment?

Since 2017, 51N4E is part of the incubation of new use in the monofunctional Brussels’ North District. Together with others, they housed for two years in the emblematic WTCI & II towers and currently in the nearby CCN building. In parallel, they were chosen as architect for the new project of the ZIN project, an adaptive reuse project turning the monofunctional WTC towers into a mixed-use development.
