At the end of the quiet staircase stands a small building the size of a thumb. It is a fresh and soft house that stands there waiting, built of sandcoloured stone. The walls are all the same size, building a perfect square of a house. One has to go down to one’s knees to inspect it more closely: every wall has five blue windows, and each window is decorated with hanging yellow figures, holding green torches. The figures are glittering in the light, turning and falling, picking themselves up and…

Link to video "Notes made of stone". The exhibition will display their first collaborative work. It connects various narratives and points of interest, such as their engagement with films by (female) directors of the 1960’s and 70’s, as well as the question of how mythological women and their depiction are still present in our current society, both linguistically as well as ideologically, subtle or overtly as references. The video collage intertwines images, sounds and narratives, such as sequences that were filmed during the work with the “Friends of Women Foundation”…

We lived in rock caves and wrapped ourselves in animal skins, and nothing has changed in this regard for thousands of years. Sand sticks to our skin like a wet shirt in the rain. The sculpture is an internalized sensory perception shaped from the unknown in sand and textile. Installation photos Sponsored by
