'The Road To School takes us viewers on a physical journey of three young people digitally abstracted and translated. Whilst we are undergoing the ride to school we encounter the 3 divers personal histories and reflections on culture, the function of culture and the necessity of grounding and belonging the way the generation of millennials deals with them. Sam ten Thij raises many questions as to the way modern societies copes and addresses current disorientations on culture, multiculturalism and the privilege of a safe future, but also how we learn from history. The work is presented in an installation of 3 life-sized cubes with the films being projected on them.'
