𖦹 Exhibition Ghosts of Futures Past at Garage Rotterdam opens Friday 29th of November!

I am super excited to announce my upcoming group show taking place at Garage Rotterdam, curated by Nadine van den Bosch.


In the context of this exhibition, I am showing a fresh new commissioned installation inspired by the myth of the murky mermaid Melusine and my teenage years exploring identity, sexuality and trauma in the alchemic sanctuary of the swamp.


The result is a large sculptural installation comprised of metal, brick, ceramic, and glassware elements containing water and living matters, made and collected this year between Artists in Residence in Everglades, Make Eindhoven, and my studio in Amsterdam. Inside the installation several costumes are presented, and the walls hold some new 2D works. Also, premiering in the Netherlands is the music video work Murky Murky, Little Bitch Witch (2023) which I made at SÍM Residency, Reykjavík in the summer of last year.I'm very excited to show again in the Netherlands and to see you there. It's been a while!


Artists: Jaasir Linger, MingJou Chen, Oscar Santillán, Saar Scheerlings, Sondi and Venus Jasper.
