HATCH: SANCTUARY
The sanctuary, a place where you can rest, heal, and if you are lucky, call your home. Safe space, (chosen) family, country, hug, shelter, house, cave, tree, etc… It can be called several names. We brought five artists freshly hatching from their school’s workshop, ready to take off in the scary world. With this show, they will welcome you in their nest, combining a selection of jewellery and fine arts installations. We will together take a moment to feel hope, search, longing for life and future.

HUIS / DUM / בַּיִת / CASA
Surrounded by our life we are at home. House as naked foundation which changes into home when we paint life on the walls. House as a shield, a container for the sacred moments of the personal. House as a shelter for togetherness, a place of welcoming, a glimpse into the other. House as a metaphor of belonging. Three alumni students and one teacher from MASieraad present an installation of four constructed spaces, a co-living scenario for exploring the relationships of jewellery and habitation. Within a neighborhood, each one stands on their private plot, alongside, creating a conversation.

FATA MORGANA – STEPHANIE VERHOEF
FATA MORGANA shows objects of desire made by Stefanie Verhoef. For this highlight exhibition the artist continued and expanded her Desire Spoon, one specific element from her graduation collection Muted, from 2015. The spoons sparkle a certain longing where the subject of the elusiveness of transience keeps returning. Additionally new works within existing collections are shown, where new developments have taken place and new techniques are explored. Stefanie Verhoef’s collections tell stories of personal observations or fascinations. Her work reflects her state of mind and as creating is a mode of thinking, it is a mode of processing. In the ongoing process of creating, she allows her perspective to shift and her designs to grow.
