Exhibitions

What do we add to the world and what happens to it when we are no longer there ourselves? In their art practice, Irene de Boer and Marina Sulima question how we treat the earth, what we leave behind with it. Because humans may be transient, but the chemicals we produce are far from that.

Plague is een multimedia-installatie met als kern een éénkanaalsvideo, omringd door sculpturen en schilderijen. De video wordt verteld vanuit het perspectief van een gefrustreerde huisvlieg die fantaseert over de uitroeiing van de mensheid. Gevangen in een koortsdroom van huiselijkheid, ontvouwen allerlei absurdistische parallellen tussen ecologische en psychologische ineenstorting wanneer Housefly Housewife ontmoet.

The name Symbiosis Series is derived from the phenomenon of symbiosis: the prolonged and harmonious coexistence of two or more organisms of different species, whereby coexistence in itself is beneficial or even necessary. This exhibition format provides two artists with space, resources and support to experiment and create new work. Participating artists are encouraged to interact with one another in various ways, similar to the natural process of symbiosis. During this interaction exchange and collaboration are possible, while (re)shaping the individual practice. The artists are free to experiment, explore and break up their modus operandi. It is a collaborative process where artists previously unknown to each other exchange visions, working methods and vim and vigor. Symbiosis Series VII will present works by  Isabel Cavenecia and Shani Leseman.
