Artwork for Stedelink Wonen , curated by Micha Debie for Open Art Gallery Delft.

In 2022 the residential buildings in Delft's district "Het Rode Dorp" were improved and made more sustainable. In 2023, Stedelink added extra color to them. Six residential buildings in this part of the city received a mural. The residents themselves chose which art style they wanted on their building: (sur)realistic, illustrative, typographic or abstract. The style that got the most votes was realized on their building.

The streets in this district are named after composers, so music formed the inspiration for the artists.

Mr.Maestro: "In one of the housing estates in Delft, there are 6 streets named after Dutch composers. Six murals thematically related to these composers were created here. I got the wall on van der Horststraat. Anthon van der Horst (1899-1965) was a Dutch composer, organist and conductor (meaning maestro - coincidence???) I decided to depict van der Horst's favorite organ from the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam with rollers and white paint only.
