PROJECTS
THE FEMALE BODY AS SAFE HAVEN
An exhibition of combined work that places the female body in a serene and mindful context. It's her territory obviously, but we are allowed to see all the personal details, all the aspects that make her who she is at that certain moment in time. To get to know another person is to get to know yourself.
Every body should be seen, no body should get hurt. We all had another one's body as our first home. Body integrity is an adventure that asks for sincere interest in life itself.
For the project "My Sovereign Body" cooperation is found with among others photographer Sascha van Kerckhove (Portraits by Sascha) and photographer/activist Ambrien Moeniralam (Cat Calls of Amsterdam). For more information see "News" or hit the button below.
MAYAK
Amsterdam based artist Mayak focuses on experiences that will free us of being only one human.
That will allow us to be many more.
To be part of a complexity of identities and to connect through that.
We have only one life.
Let's embrace being different.
Let's accept.
Together.
Wings.
