NEVERNEVERLAND is proud and excited to present to you

'Sensus Communis', a solo show by Tom T. Smit ( NL)

 

In his work, Smit ( lives and works in Amsterdam, NL), investigates how the human dimension, as a mental construct of reality, can be depicted and experienced. He creates ambivalent images that are characterized in his new paintings by the unity of the cuteness aesthetic with the dark challenges that life also has to offer. It should be noted that it is never entirely clear whether something we call cute is a compliment or a criticism. Also, it's important to recognize that we often find things cute when they appear more powerless than ourselves.

 

With these works Tom T. Smit creates ambiguous images that consciously challenge the conventional orders of rationality and seeks an opening to a poetic space that is already enclosed in the work and in himself. He sees his work as a starting point that raises questions about perception and the relationship between the individual and the collective unconscious, opening a dialogue between personal and universal experiences.

About the work
Let the Eagle loose at night
As time flies with heavy wings.
Tip the glass upside down,
Bleed with its grain.


Teeth and bone tear open this man
Who slashed the ground beneath us.
Cut your hands and held them.
So desperate to
feel
I ask now only for penance,
So that I may heal.


I will wait for time.
Eyes to the floor
Hands around the clock.


Govern my soul


Have no mercy on my flesh,
Leave it out to rot.


I pray God forgives me,
Because I know that I will not.

 

- Olivia Harley


About the Artist:

Tuna Tunaboylu, born in Antalya, is an artist who is on his unpredictable and engrossing journey.

Before enrolling in Gerrit Rietveld Academie, he spent his life in Turkey.

This change is emblematic of his courage and passion for art which are also deeply woven in his performances and films. Although trained in different art forms, Tuna has found his calling in performance art in which he combines the elements of his mind and body. This mental and physical exploration has been and still is, exhausting and demanding but also has led to his self-identification both as an artist and as a person.

Tuna’s artistic vision is about self-expression, courage, and spontaneity. Using these components, he is exploring and pushing his mental and physical limits through which he grows as an artist. This transformation, even though, hard and painful, is a crucial path to take for the young artist who is serious and passionate about making self-expression. Tuna’s projects are making an impact on those who are curious to enquire about the limits of physical endurance, mental awareness, spiritual exploration but maybe, more importantly, life itself.

The Story of Leonora is a short film about a little girl who is given a red eye by two giant water bears and follows her demon to the edge of another world, a red world. The film is a weave of still images, different voices and music, spiralling into a riddle. But a riddle that only Leonora can answer.


About the workshop for kids:
Alongside the exhibition there will be a three day workshop for kids exploring the art of film making with still images, hosted by Bela Teiwes, Loïc Vandam & Clemens Stumpf. The workshop is spread across three days and divided in three sessions. The intention is to find the stories hidden in the images/things that are around us. Contact for workshop info and subscription: loickvandam@gmail.com

About the filmmakers:
Loïc Vandam (1998, BE) is an artist and writer living and working across Belgium and the Netherlands. They graduated from the moving image department of the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in 2021. The whole of their work, which are mainly drawings and writings, is plagued by the image of the icon and mosaics that depict everything and nothing at the same time.

 

Clemens Stumpf (1996, DE) is a visual artist and filmmaker living and working from Amsterdam. His works range from short films to music videos and video installations. Through a playful, participatory and magical approach to the medium of moving images he tries to find manifestations of the spirits between us, within us and beyond us.

This exhibition is supported by AFK - Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunst

NEVERNEVERLAND is proud to present: “Catching the water "a duo show by artists Tao Yang (China) and Jae Pil Eun ( South Korea).

 

The night of March 4th

Tao Yang presents an installation based on photographs, he uses fabric to create a space to communicate with people not by talking but by feeling and experiencing, you could travel to experiences he has had and associate with his memory or yours.

 

Monkey and the Moon

Inspired by a fairy tale from Asia ‘Catching the moon reflected on the water’. A monkey is seduced by the beauty of the moon's reflection on the water and is trying to catch it. He splashes the water and the moon disappears but after a while it appears again.
For "Monkey and the Moon", Jae invited Tao to do a sound based- performance.
He made different sizes of drums and they will present a journey of research of East Asian theatre, the highly abstract form of narrative concentrated on sound.
Jae and Tao bring repetitive movement in combination with sound to the performance.

 

 

About:

 

Tao Yang

I like to feel something around me, light, space, people, sound…, these elements consist of images of many moments in my brain. After two days or  a month, part of those details of these images disappear, people’s faces are vague, I even can’t remember how bright the sun was, but there is a more private emotion at that moment, maybe I forget how the lips look like of the guy, but I remember how blue his eyes where...

 

I like to use piecemeal emotion to record my life. Meanwhile, I hope to connect with other people with private emotion, perhaps the connection from the moment we are here at the same time, or from an individual experience, which can be recalled in the histories and memories.

 

Now, something I made is my life in Amsterdam. I am wondering what my life will be and what my works will be like here.

 

Jae Pil Eun

I have presented a journey of research of East Asian theatre, the highly abstract form of narrative concentrated on sound and light. I consider western society to have a single-narrative myth based on Christianity which caused hate and discrimination. In the name of ‘primitive’, myths from different cultures have been destroyed and censored. I consider our research of East Asian opera as a journey to find an alternative form of myth, based on different geological and cultural backgrounds.

Artist-in-Residence:  Loidys Carnero

Period:

26 October – 26 November, 2020

 

Location:

De Nachtegaal, residency of NEVERNEVERLAND 

Heesterveld 35a, Amsterdam Zuidoost.

 

Loidys Carnero residency at Neverneverland will show the process of conceiving new works for the upcoming solo show at NEVERNEVERLAND, at our location in the Amsterdam city center. 

During the residency Loidys will continue experimenting with Blue Curaçao liquor and other materials that his recent pieces are made of, such as, color additive, glass and wood. Official Curaçao liqueur is made with the dried peels of a bitter orange native from Curaçao. For the artist the intense smell of “orange” coming out of a “blue” liquor is a disorienting experience.

The new pieces experimental aspect is amplified by activating sensory impressions beyond the purely visual, such as smell. Loidys does not work with any one brand of Blue Curaçao liquor, the bottles can be purchased locally anywhere. Although the exact shade of Blue Curaçao liquor varies slightly by manufacturer, the color is generally standardized across the industry.

 

Loidys prefers to work with restricted means, perhaps inside this restrained order he has latitude to comment on what touches him. The new pieces will explore space (site-specific), and the relationship between natural and artificial.

 

About the Artist:

Loidys Carnero (La Habana, Cuba, 1982). Graduated from the San Alejandro Art Academy in Havana and the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. He recently completed a master's in Fine Arts at the Sandberg Instituut, Amsterdam. Combining photography, installation and sculpture in his works Loidys has addressed issues of displacement, adaptability, identity and craftsmanship. His work has been exhibited in: Looiersgracht 60, Amsterdam; Decoratelier Nationale Opera & Ballet, Amsterdam; Art Center Faro Cabo Mayor, Santander; Havana Art Weekend, La Habana; Cobra Museum of Modern Art, Amstelveen; Liverpool Biennial and La Casa Encendida, Madrid. Loidys Carnero lives and works in Amsterdam.

NEVERNEVERLAND is proud to present "Standing Wave" a solo show by

Brian D. Mc Kenna.

 

The exhibition “Standing Wave” invites an analogue of history: the sentiment that we are neither moving forwards nor backwards, merely oscillating in place; an argument that we must free ourselves from the trappings progress in order to find our bearings – to see what and where we are.


Expressions of technology figure heavily into this. On the quest for a deep spiritual authenticity, we find “nostalgia for the real”, simulated disembodiments, and a feedback-loop of technical-solutionism which seems to underwrite our longings. For the problem of methods: more methods. For the problem gadgets: more gadgets. This is a music of phase-cancellation; of ever quickening pulses; a reflection of our semi-conscious yet grand call to minimize thought; bit-words coalescing and approaching light-speed; signals abandoning meaning, falling out of time.

For this series of audiovisual installations, McKenna debuts a new series of high-definition video circuits. These direct, signal based artworks sidestep the need for computers, relying instead on the malleability unique characteristics of self-made analogue electronics.
Through a focus on timebased colour, tone and resonance, a core topic of *stability* is explored here. At once a technical / physical reality of image & sound feedback, the issue of stability spills over into notions of ‘innovation’: it’s promises, problems, novelty-cult status; and the visceral, tactile processes of adaptation we humans tend towards. It follows that, in terms of aesthetic experience and the authority to create meaning, the tools are making an effort o become indistinguishable from the images and sounds they produce.

 

About the Artist:

Brian D. McKenna was born in Ottawa in 1975, he grew up in Scotland and England and settled in Lethbridge, Alberta in 1985. McKenna received a multi-disciplinary BFA in music & visual art from the University of Lethbridge and a MFA at the Sandberg Institute, Amsterdam.

He lives and works in Amsterdam and his work presented internationally. McKenna’s art-works deal with technological environments and propaganda in relation to the tools we use and how we use them. His investigations highlight the importance of critical inquiry into technologies, the building of one’s own tools, and the quasi-religious role of technology in human endeavours and our place in the natural world.

"Let's keep in touch"

Artist in Residence: Zaïra F. Pourier

Residency period: 7 September - 18 October 2020

 

Location
De Nachtegaal, residency of NEVERNEVERLAND
Heesterveld 35a, Amsterdam South East

 

NEVERNEVERLAND invites young national and international artist to come and work and research for a period of 5 weeks in Amsterdam South-East and in collaboration with Ateliers '89 at Aruba.
In addition to this we organize masterclasses & workshops based on the practice of the Artist in Residence given by the artist or other artists we invite especially for the masterclass & workshops at De Nachtegaal, residency of NEVERNEVERLAND.
 

During this period Zaira will collaborate with Christine Kipiriri.

Zaira and Christine collaborated before on projects which explore the more intimate experiences in spatial design, fashion and art. Such as The New Normal at Oscam X Modemuze, ‘Total Freedom’ WOMEN OFWAR, KIPIRIRI X F22 KIPIRIRI, 3Three Fold z_inna_flo and now with Let’s Keep in Touch at our Residency de Nachtegaal.

 

About the Masterclass

During this masterclass the participants will build a 3 dimensional spatial configuration. Their objective is to recreate a new representation of our built environment. One which comes closer to us, those who inhabit it and engage with it on a daily basis.

 

Sat 03 October 14h00 - 18h00

Total of 8 participants

Email to nevernever.reservation@gmail.com

 

Zaïra F. Pourier (Caribbean, Sicilian) and Christine Kipiriri (Burundian, Russian) collaborate to blur the convention.

Throughout their practice they mediate between art, architecture and fashion.

Their curious spirit, appreciation for fine detail and their cultural identity plays a significant role in their translations. With their bold visionary approach, they embrace what there is and create space they desire to see exist, this what empowers their union.

Instagram: @seetotouch

 

Amsterdam is known for being a multicultural melting pot. This diversity is reflected in the eclectic food scene, the arts and cultural initiatives. Since this pandemic however we are experiencing how our spatial routines, both public and private are being reconfigured to adapt to the needs and safety of each other. We witness how our built environment; the human-made structures of a city; the urban fabric, the architecture and the public space is fundamental and crucial to our well-being.

This made us question who and what do these permanent structures represent, and how does our diverse cultural background identify with this? During this residency it is of importance to us to juxtapose our identity within the built environment. To accomplish this we will engage with our environment as a playground; document and collect the traces of people, research the building materials, and map our routes which connect us to different places in the city. Our objective is to beautify these encounters by creating a visual representation that will translate what there is and what we envision it to become. Hopefully there will be serendipity where we will even find similarities

 

"Let's keep in touch" refers to: Let's stay closely connected with our built environment. At the end of the day this is the most essential and meaningful to us, humans.

 

About the Artist:

Zaïra Florence Pourier is a Caribbean - Sicilian architect and visual artist based in Amsterdam. She has lived and worked in Aruba, the United states, Italy, Mexico and Switzerland. Throughout her career her interest has been focused on connecting people by means of exploring the interrelation of Art that appeals to our emotion, and Architecture that animates our physical reality. In 2014 she returned to her place of birth, Amsterdam, where she established her most recent practice; an experimental playground to investigate materials, human influences, and the inter connectivity between cultures.

 

At the beginning of this year she transformed her instagram page (@z_inna_flo) into a living embodiment of this practice. Zaira in her Florence...in her blossom - is the container in which she explores and documents her everyday encounters by visually altering them into an aesthetically unique Universal language. For her, it is important that what is seen as typically mundane is beautified and appreciated to the extent that it inspires society to take accountability in and of its current built environment.

 

“As I blossom the world shall evolve” - Zaira Pourier

 

Christine Kipiriri (Burundian, Russian)

After the Preliminary program at ArtEZ in Arnhem Christine studied two years International fashion & design at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute, she was the creative director at KIPIRIRI and now she is the creative director of Women Ofwar and has her autonomous practice as an artist.

We are not even aware of ourselves biting our lips, rubbing our feet under the chair, and being under water. None of us had period then in Lion’s Plaza. As a trade-off, 12 years later when we say “lights off!” The lights go off. Being frightened, we all stay quiet and look away from each other. Even though we understand that a profile is not a person, a mask won’t cover the conspiracy and an insecure security secures our imagination and properties.

What is after me is not a spy. That island used to be a wonderland of butterflies. Because we remember the route to the Grounds, by tracing the smell of human residues. These memories are later transformed into genetic codes, an inherited sense of the whole species. Human's exploitation, you said. Sitting on the trees we watch our flashbacks replay around the globe.

When it rains, it pours. The leakage has formed a lake of boiling hot soybean milk, so we decide to sell it to make a living. Our all time favourite “The river of frozen blood” is now available in the store again. According to the blacklist on my hand, you will get an unprecedented-crisis-limited edition delivered straight to your door without contact. Yes technically we always stay seamlessly connected by the map which says there’s no light at the end of the tunnel.

 

This exhibition is based on the story of Lion’s Plaza, which is known for its haunted stories and suppressed history. It is said that many people fall ill by simply entering the building. Located in the heart of Taipei, an area of youth culture and tourists, Lion’s Plaza was one of the most promising urban projects built in the 70s. While just within a few years of its grand opening, numerous fires, suicides, gun-shots had made the building a notorious crime hub. Rising on the site of previous Taiwan Garrison Command, where had imprisoned and executed innocent citizens under political accusations, Lion’s Plaza bears the covered brutal history of authoritarianism enacted by the political party Kuomintang (KMT).

After WWII, KMT was soon defeated by the Chinese Communist Party and retreated to the small island Taiwan from mainland China. With accumulated anger of injustice brought by the KMT, outraged Taiwanese started a protest after a policeman shot an old lady dead on the street. The protest led to a bloody massacre by the KMT military force, between 5,000 and 28,000 people were killed in one day, and followed by an imposed martial law that lasted for 38 years, which is the second longest in human history after Syria. During this period of time, around 140,000 people were imprisoned and about 4,000 were executed under the accusation of being against the government. The dictator, Chiang Kai-Shek, said he would rather have killed a hundred innocent people not to risk missing one protagonist. This part of history remains a taboo in public even until today and the KMT still wins 1/3 seats in the recent election in 2020.

“None of us had period then” names after six innocent women who were confined in Taiwan Garrison Command. While one was sentenced, the five survived mention that no women had period coming when in captivity, which indicates their terrible physical and mental condition in confinement.

 

About Artist:

Tsai Mong-Hsuan (1989, Taiwan), is an artist who lives and works in Amsterdam and Taipei. Her practice reacts on daily life encounters, with her body trained as a dancer, her hands holding a camera or a brush, and her brain thinks like a child or her mom. Her works can be read as pursuits of joyfulness and insistence on free, open and airy mode of being. Her seeming work's poetry or lyricism are quite informed, stemming from different registers of thinking. She holds a Master degree from Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam since 2018 and a Bachelor degree in Psychology from National Taiwan University. She co-founded Green-Wave Dance Theatre group from 2008 to 2013 and Lambda Film Production in 2016.

NEVERNEVERLAND

Frans de Wollantstraat 84, Amsterdam

 

NEVERNEVERLAND is proud to present: “Lavish are the Dead "a solo show by artist Juri Suzuki (JP).

 

“The corpses floating in the tank possessed the solidity and independence of consummate ‘objects.’
But those others were still moving slowly away from consciousness, traversing an ambiguous middle ground, when they were incinerated: they didn’t have time to become perfect objects. Of course we’re objects.
And pretty ingeniously put together at that. A man who’s cremated as soon as he dies never knows the sense of volume and weight, or the feeling of solidity you get when you’re an object. It sounded right to me. Death was an object. But I had only comprehended it as an aspect of consciousness. Death as an object began where consciousness ended.” - Lavish are the Dead by Kenzaburō Ōe.
Since Juri Suzuki saw her grandfather passed away in front of her, she got obsessed with how a human being shifts from a living body into an object.
This exhibition includes several events. It starts with the performance “A horse riding a tongue” from Angelo Custódio at the opening on Friday 13 th March 20:30. Sunday evening, 15 th March 17:30 there is a Zen meditation workshop organised by Gioia from Zen.nl Amsterdam.

 

On 20 th March 19:00 there is the Friday night talk “Moment” with guest speakers Lola Bezemer (visual artist/performer) and Arthur Nieuwendijk (Zen teacher). In this talk, we discuss about the “Moment” in different perspective such as Zen and artistic practice.

Through these events, which can each be understood as fragments of a bigger whole, she aims to capture the experience of transitioning from life to death.
 
About the artists:

Juri Suzuki (JP) Born and raised in Fukushima, Japan.

**********************************
Rosalinde C. Zeidman
Abondance, hypnotic session (livestream 30min)
Rosalinde Christopher Zeidman on ‘Abundance Hypnotic Session’...
During our childhood – let’s say between 0 and approximately 11 years – our brainwaves are similar to brainwaves in a state of meditation and/or hypnosis. Which means that your brain is highly vulnerable to the external environment. The environment feeds the subconscious where beliefs are created. Some of those subconscious beliefs will influence you the rest of your life, while you don’t even realize it.
In this session I will take you to those moments where you decided as a kid that ‘Abundance’ was not for you. We will do that with a form of hypnosis. I am going to be counting you back to a time in your life where you began to form beliefs that you couldn’t have what you wanted. You are not consciously doing this, your subconscious mind – as I speak - will start to identify and locate the scenes in your life that programmed you badly. And you are going to go back and have a look at that and then we are going to unpick it. It’s a bit like being a detective or a dentist.
About the artist:
Rosalinde (NL) graduated at the Sandberg in 2016 where she followed the temporary masters ‘Curemaster’. This master programme focussed mainly on mental & physical health.
Rosalinde is fascinated by how our brain operates and brings us beliefs, thoughts and emotion that shape our inner- and external experience of our reality. How conscious or unconscious are these thoughts and emotions? Is our brain programmed by our external environment? Do we have ‘free will” at all? How malleable are we? And which methods exist to influence our state of mind?
At this moment Rosalinde works a lot with black dots, circles and/or drops (ink, acryl, medium and liquid glass). When she has an impuls of inspiration she just sits down and starts. The process is almost like a meditation. Her thoughts are not silent during these processes. “What are you doing?” “This does not make any sense?” “Why are you wasting your time with this?” These questions arise very often in her mind. She tries not to give them attention and just keep on going with making the work. And then somewhere, somehow the work feels like completed because it feels ‘right’. That doesn’t mean that her aesthetic eye always agrees with her feeling.
 
*******************************************
Juri Suzuki
Lavish are the Dead
Performance by Juri Suzuki / Miyuki Inoue (livestream 20min)
“The corpses floating in the tank possessed the solidity and independence of consummate ‘objects.’
But those others were still moving slowly away from consciousness, traversing an ambiguous middle ground, when they were incinerated: they didn’t have time to become perfect objects.
Of course we’re objects.
And pretty ingeniously put together at that. A man who’s cremated as soon as he dies never knows the sense of volume and weight, or the feeling of solidity you get when you’re an object. It sounded right to me. Death was an object. But I had only comprehended it as an aspect of consciousness. Death as an object began where consciousness ended.”
- Lavish are the Dead by Kenzaburō Ōe.
Since Juri Suzuki saw her grandfather passed away in front of her, she got obsessed with how a human being shifts from a living body into an object.
This exhibition includes several events. And is waiting for you all to come and visit as soon as we can open again at our location Frans de Wollantstraat 84, Amsterdam Centre.
About the artist:
Juri Suzuki (JP) born and raised in Fukushima, Japan. She graduated in Architecture, from Tokyo University of Science in 2005, from the Fine arts of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in 2013 and Studio for Immediate Spaces of the Sandberg Institute in 2015. She currently works as an artist based in Amsterdam and has participated in several artist in residences and group exhibitions in Japan, Korea, Greece and the Netherlands. Suzuki was an artist-in-residence

Arnar Ásgeirsson
Live and Well      (videostream 4x15min)
A live stream mixtape from the ice cold studio where the isolated artist entertains himself and those tuning in, with melodies guided by visuals found deep on rusty hard drives.
Arnar made 4 video's which will be shown throughout the program they last 15 minutes each. After the event they will be on view on our youtube channel NEVERNEVERLAND-
About the Artist:
The practice of Arnar Ásgeirsson (Iceland) involves video works, drawings, installations and sculptures with performative aspects.
The work deals with questions of creative ownership, originality, and the differences between creating and copying.
By introducing objects into new scenarios, the possibility of unexpected narratives emerges.

Amsterdam

 

Younwon Sohn’s solo exhibition Housewarming, Dear Ghost Ants is based on a four-week stay at De Nachtegaal, an artist residency at NEVERNEVERLAND Foundation in Amsterdam.

 

For her solo show Housewarming, Dear Ghost Ants, Sohn focused on how to approach the idea of hospitality and domesticity in relation to elements linked to architecture, sound, body and creatures. Often her hospitality is an invitation of her own distant living space and the collaborative effort of friends who wish to link and share their narratives and local sceneries with her. Sohn extends her invitation to Juana Lee, a sound project between Younwon Sohn and Andrés G. Vidal.

 

This project delves into monitored and manipulated soundscapes extracted from each other's local sceneries. The floor space which is reconstructed of her balcony at Nowon, in Seoul, provides a place for gathering and a platform to hold other linkages. On the floor piece, there are insect creatures which are not welcomed but are prior residents of Sohn’s home. Calling them as potential relatives or flatmates, Sohn draws the connection between the invisible signal of Wi-Fi to the ghostly traces of creatures around every corner of her house. She takes them as a crucial indicator to understand what is home now.

 

About the artist:

Younwon Sohn (Seoul, KR) enjoys making sculptures which function as hospitality. Most of her works are site-specific installations which use domestic architecture to reflect daily practices like cleaning, digesting and sharing, to produce energy for a future event. She received her Bachelor Degree at Korean National University of Arts (KR), 2014 and attended the exchange program at Maryland Institute College of Arts (US), 2011. Since 2019 she holds her Master Degree from Sandberg Institute (NL), she is currently working in Amsterdam and Seoul. Her work has been presented in group and solo exhibitions in several institutions and artist-run spaces such as Barim space, Gallery 17717, Ricehouse_Bahmyi in the cave(KR), MACAO(IT), Zone2Source(NL), Tiefkeller(DE) etc.

REVERSE HYDRO-FLOWS

DRIEWIELER COLLECTIEF

Period: 09 March till 02 April 2020

 

Location:

Ateliers '89 / NEVERNEVERLAND

Dominicanessenstraat 34, Oranjestad, Aruba

 

NEVERNEVERLAND is proud to present ”Reverse Hydro-Flows”, the project of De Driewieler Collectief at our collaborative residency in Aruba.

 

Reverse Hydro-flows draws its content from a perspective upon hydrocommonality and focus on the conceptualisation and development of a space installation as physical structure to host several encounters. The installation functions as an ecotone and as a space for facilitation of embodied practices and critical thinking, open to forms of knowledge that can drip, leak or spill from the non-western practices. A more liquid and inclusive space, aligned with a softening queer ethics, in search for an eco-deviant and yet-to-come utopia. These encounters will engage the Aruban community, activating flows of alterity beyond the binary and stimulating waves of reparation.

 

The concepts of Reverse Hydro-flows revolve around notion of liquidity and how does water shape new ecologies of living. Ateliers’ 89 / NEVERNEVERLAND and Aruba are a perfect context for such research. The omnipresence of sea water surrounding the island offers a perfect frame for Reverse Hydro-flows. More over, the socially engaged practice of our artistic collective was a big motivation for this invitation. Ateliers’ 89 program is deeply implemented for the surrounding population and to create a connection between the local population and international design and art. In addition to the encounter program, the final material production of Reverse Hydro-flows will take place in Ateliers’ 89 exhibition space in April 2020.

 

 

About the artists:

 

The Driewieler Collectief is composed by the artists: Arthur Guilleminot, Pedro Matias and Angelo Custodio.

As artistic living assemblage, we facilitate supportive structures to one another, daily.
Based on this experience, our artistic practice aligned with a queer ethics becomes life and life dissolves into practice and, therefore, our individual body of work informs our collective practice. With this exchange, we build a fluid yet supportive framework for our projects. A wobbly supportive system that allows different outcomes and that facilitates new perspectives and ways of doing, beyond our personal boundaries and fascinations.
Collectively, we research alternative structures based on our living, loving and working reality. By sharing each practice in fluid horizontal flows, we bridge critical thinking, developing socially engaged works exploring performance, interactive installation, immersive soundscapes, choreographed objects and non-traditional forms of art making.
The facilitation of interaction with the audience, allows a collective creation of a liquid temporality and a queer micro-community.
We focus in promoting visibility to different compositions of bodies, both in life and art. It is fundamental to use our agency as queer bodies to facilitate radical resistance - decolonized, horizontal, liquid, critical and destabilising the fixity of knowledge.
There is urgency in facilitating speculative approaches towards an optimist queer utopia, to allow new structures for ecologies of alterity to thrive.
By thinking with liquidity we rethink our bodies as wet matter and therefore with much more in common with other nonhuman bodies that what humankind wants to admit.
Our hydrocommonality with otherness and darkness should facilitate our understanding of our surroundings and ecosystems.

NEVERNEVERLAND is excited to present ‘STAMINA TROPICAL WINTER': the first solo exhibition by Aurélien Lepetit in The Netherlands.

 

‘STAMINA TROPICAL WINTER' is a site specific installation reshaping the architectural archetype of the Gym as a vitrine where Fitness is used as a societal obsession. It seeks to question the body as a tool to shape identities by merging sports movements and devices with clubbing aesthetics into visuals, sounds and olfactives interventions.

 

This exhibition will showcase glass sculptures with Fitness aesthetic which is activated by the performers and driven by a sound piece in collaboration with The Mountain.

 

 

Performers:

Pedro Matias (PT), Elisabeth Mesnier (FR) and Estéfano Romani (BR)

Sound of techno: The Mountain (NL)

 

About the artist:

Aurélien Lepetit’s work investigates movement, gestures and attitudes from daily-life motion as a choreography. He stages the carnality of a body which is no longer present by pushing its boundaries and limits beyond gender, sexuality, political, patriarchal and sociological pressures. Lepetits work seeks the meaning of masculinity by questioning the body as a cluster to research beauty ideals, societal pressure and its impacts through medium such as video, installation and performance. Overlapping and merging olympic sports movement as a dance, Fitness as a societal obsession and Clubbing as a space of anthropological analysis shaping identities.

 

Aurélien Lepetit b. Lyon, France lives and works in Amsterdam. He holds a B.A. in Design of Spaces specialized in Set and Stage Design, Lyon, France, an M.A. in Exhibition Design and an M.A. in Dirty Art at the Sandberg Instituut. His work has been exhibited during The Wandering School at M^C^O, Milano (IT) (short-listed for the Milano Design Prize for best Experimentation), Off the Record: Design Performs in the Wormhole between Milan and Rotterdam at The Het Nieuwe Instituut, Rotterdam (NL), Lucky Larry’s Cosmic Commune, International Design Biennale, St Etienne (FR), and assisted the curator Florence Parot for the exhibition de Appel timeline: 40+ years of risks conceptualized by Niels van Tomme, De Appel Art Center, Amsterdam (NL).

Frans de Wollantstraat 84, Amsterdam

 

NEVERNEVERLAND is excited to present “The Burrow”: a duo exhibition by Minne Kersten and Jorik Amit Galama.

 

The exhibition “The Burrow” approaches the current obsession with feeling at home by looking at the specific intimacy people experience in their own house. The temporary expelling of the rules of public life creates a place where one gets as close as possible to something of a true self. At the same time, the vulnerability of this constellation often implicates the anxiety for its loss. The works in the exhibition encapsulate this fragility and play with the question what we try to protect with the notion of the home.

 

General text:

Although his apartment was located in a rather affluent neighborhood, the interior bore a close resemblance to the trenches that were dug during the Battle of the Somme. Old magazines and plastic bags had formed walls, the sleeves of suits hanging out in surrender, a tropical plant searched for sunlight and on the floor lay fragments of furniture that had been crushed by the weight they had supported. He tripled tirelessly between the four craters in which his mattress, the toilet, a kitchen sink and a small stool were located. When he sat down on the stool he tried to determine if he smelled or heard something that wasn’t his own. Memories of the outside world, with its parks, shopping centers, and boulevards, made him guffaw; how to cope with all those complete strangers! But he sometimes questioned if more had withdrawn, were only the delivery boys roaming the streets? When the doorbell rang to announce the arrival of his ration of food he shivered. A ringing doorbell meant the proximity of someone with eyes, and the eyes of others were like rifles, ready to fire a blasting gaze.

 

Artists:

Minne Kersten (NL) is an Amsterdam based visual artist and writer. She studied at Rietveld academie (Text & Image department, 2016). Her installations derive from fictional stories and metaphors about domesticated environments. She is interested in the living spaces that surround humans and how these are interacting with our bodies pumping of blood, flesh, skin and organs. Working across video’s, set-building and storytelling, she researches notions of architecture in relation to all sorts of building processes found in nature- and city life.

 

Her installations have been showed at i.a. at7 project space (2017), Museumnacht Appel Arts Centre (2017), Harbinger Iceland (2017), Worm S/ASH GA\\ERY (2017), Hrísey Iceland (2016), Oude Kerk (2015), de Brakke Grond (2015).
