At first glance, a dodo and Delft blue pottery seem to have nothing in common, but if you dig further into history, you will find out that there is indeed a connection. Pepijn likes to delve into the history of Asia and the Netherlands and combines old stories with extraordinary objects and impressions that he gains during his travels. That's how he came to the story of the dodo. An adorable, adorable bird that can't fly and has almost no natural enemies. Until the Dutch traders from the 17th century set foot on the island and seriously disturb the habitat of this legendary bird. The animal is eaten, new enemies such as monkeys and pigs are introduced and a few dodos are brought onboard to give as gifts to emperors or to be viewed as a curiosity. All of this leads to the extinction of the dodo.
