Uit de verkoop van Mingle 1 tijdens het Groot Rotterdams Atelier Weekend is een mooie vriendschap ontstaan en ook een samenwerking in een spannend multimedia-project (Worlding) een aantal jaar geleden. Hier wordt de Mingle in het atelier van de architect/schilder omgeven door haar foto’s en maquettes van gebouwen, een tekstwerk van Merijn Bolink en een foto van Claudia Heinermann.

PRESS RELEASE -
“For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro’ narrow chinks of his cavern.” — William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell (1790)

In een tijd waarin algoritmes ons gedrag sturen, polarisatie onze blik vernauwt en maatschappelijke systemen onze perceptie conditioneren, lijkt de mens zichzelf opnieuw te hebben ‘opgesloten’ — precies zoals William Blake het in de 18e eeuw voorzag.

Cracks in the Cave brengt hedendaagse kunstenaars samen die deze ‘kieren van de grot’ blootleggen en openen. Hun werk biedt geen eenduidige antwoorden, maar nodigt uit tot kijken, voelen en het ervaren van twijfel.

Net als Blake bekritiseren zij het beperkte wereldbeeld dat ontstaat door sociale conventies, technologische vernauwing en culturele codes. Via mode, lichaam, kleur en performativiteit gebruiken zij verbeelding als een maatschappelijk krachtveld. Niet als vlucht, maar als middel tot transformatie en verbinding.

Iedere kunstenaar doorbreekt op eigen wijze het begrensde perspectief op identiteit, lichaam en werkelijkheid.

Vanuit een collectieve drijfveer nodigen zij ons uit om ons blikveld te verruimen in een wereld die steeds verder lijkt te krimpen.

New work: Semi Colon 6
(triptych)
2025
20x16 + 36x44 + 16x16cm
conté chalk on paper between colored 8mm Greencast Plexiglas

I always seem to combine fragments from different worlds. In the Semi Colon series it’s portraits and various optical phenomena.
In a desire to balance the current unrest in the individual experience with its insignificance compared to the world that simply keeps turning.

Happy to participate in this great group! ❤️

“For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro’ narrow chinks of his cavern.”
— William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell (1790)
Like Blake, the artists critique the limited worldview shaped by social conventions, technological narrowing, and cultural codes. Through fashion, the body, color, and performativity, they use imagination as a social force—not as an escape, but as a means of transformation and connection.

“For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro’ narrow chinks of his cavern.”
— William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell (1790)

In a time when algorithms shape our behavior, polarization narrows our view, and social systems condition our perception, it seems humanity has once again ‘shut itself in’—just as William Blake foresaw in the 18th century.

Cracks in the Cave is curated by Anya Janssen and Majke Hüsstege. They brought together a wonderful, colourful collection of artists. 💥💥

Part II: Resonances from the Other One

In a world that is more digitally connected than ever, many of us feel strangely more disconnected — as if the world is slipping through our fingers. Our social, political and creative environments are experiencing an acceleration that often seems to be beyond our control. That reality fosters a growing sense of disorientation. And yet, a deep human longing persists: for participation, for collaboration, for the exchange of ideas, for meaningful contact through words, through shared presence.
The two-part exhibition seeks to reflect this tension and delve into the complex interplay between disoriented confusion and yearning for connection. The overarching theme is resonance, understood both as a metaphor for interpersonal connection and as a response to one’s environment. As social and relational beings, we are looking for a certain resonance, a connectedness with the world whether it be human, natural or artificial. This idea can also be grasped through Donna Haraway’s concept of Worlding by which she describes ‘a process of the world, the body and their material actants which are equally conceived as materially amorphous, unfinished and always on the move’.

Participating artists part II:
Gill Baldwin, Florian Braakman, Lorena van Bunningen, Rachel A. Carey, Lidy Jacobs,
Maria Ikonomopoulou, Jake Kelly, Arthur Kleinjan, Jeroen Kuster, Katharina D. Martin, Lana Mesić, Gyz La Rivière, Daan Samson, Charlotte Schleiffert, Janine Schrijver, Anique Weve, Driessens & van der Baar/ Wandschappen, Werner van der Zwan
