Pleasure Island moved out of Ostend at the end of 2022 and in September 2023 to the orchard of Certain Circles (Lukas De Clerck, Amber Meulenijzer and Stijn Wybouw) in Burst.

The second year on beach of Ostend was preceded by an open call, a selection of propositions resulted in a series of events and a residency. Discovering ways of giving away the space to others, numerous events took place each with their own unique atmosphere.

Two more permanent works were added to the cabin. Simon Masschelein added a rain gutter on the back-wall and Jan Vandeplancke a broom-wistle.

After the first summer the cabin moved to the garden of Ludwigshaven in Wingene for a hibernation. A way to stay connected, to see how the cabin would stand winter conditions and finally a spring gathering. As the beach cabin woke up from its winter sleep, the work of three artists blossomed with it.

The traveling pavilion brings out a toast for Spring on 27 March was a legendary gathering and the opening of Pleasure Troopers from Arnaud Eubelen, Sandkastali from Justine Grillet and the first impressions of the work from Simon Masschelein.

In April 2021 the cabin went for the first time out into the open. We got a permit from the city and carried the cabin onto the beach of Ostend. It was placed facing the North Sea and stayed there until the beginning of Autumn. As the season progressed, multiple artists added a work to the space and structure.

Paule Josephe made marble dyed curtains for the cabin with the title Sun of the Metal Ox. Dries Peeters made the cabin's door handle from oak wood, Door de ruisende golven uw hoofd leeg gewassen. Rest nog uw mondaine leven in uw broekzak te passen. Chloé Arrouy added Le Gardien, a weathervane made of a stainless steel boat float, a brass wartime socket and other items found by Chloé in Normandy and a small miniature dog's head on the very top. And the last days of Summer, days became shorter and more cold, the cabin became a shelter from the wind and rain. Jot Fau added Rien à dire - Tout à panser, a woolen blanket to keep one warm.

This first year was a period of experimentation with the different uses and possibilities. A lot of try-outs took place, often in a partly-public atmosphere. Encounters with casual passers-by led to more collaborations the same year and the years following.

In October 2020 the first sketches were made for the cabin together with Stephen Van Elslander. As the project of the cabin became concrete and new people (Stilbé Schroeder, Emma Joly and Kristina-Sedlerova Villanen) joined from different horizons, the energy started to boil and a crowdfunding was launched calling for financial donations from Pleasure Island supporters.

The cabin was constructed in February 2021 with the help of Dries Peeters, Stilbé Schroeder, Emma Joly and Nana Esi. The holding structure is executed from recycled pine wood and the exterior from sustainable pine thermowood with a 100% natural stain. The cabin lives and evolves throughout the changeable seasonal environment challenged by winds, rain and various publics. The structure of the pavilion is designed to be sustainable with the possibility of reassembling it in different locations. It is a playful research concerning the position and influence of artistic endeavors in and around the community — a suggestion to how a beach cabin can bend, architecturally and functionally.
