About the artwork

The allowance affair in the Netherlands has inflicted deep wounds on thousands of families. Parents were not only forced into financial difficulties, but their whole lives were disrupted. The tax authorities wrongfully claimed back large sums of money, leaving families in debt and unable to meet their basic needs.

In many cases, the financial pressure led to serious social problems. Safe Home and Child Protection Services had to deal with parents struggling to care for their children after their financial resources were taken away by the state. The system, which was supposed to support parents, failed them and caused irreparable damage.

The affair caused rifts in family ties as the pressure and stress of debt often became too much to bear. Children were sometimes placed out of home because parents were simply no longer able to care for them. The government, which was supposed to provide protection and support, became a source of pain and misery.

This heartbreaking situation highlights the need for more just and humane policies, where families are protected and no one is unfairly punished. The aftermath of the benefits affair is a painful reminder of the consequences of bureaucratic mistakes and the urgent need for reform.
