NEE/NEE

(March 2022) for Gerrit Rietveld Academie

Shown at the exhibition 'As If They Know' at When Site Lost the Plot
​

An artistic intervention in the exhibition space When Site Lost The Plot. A stream of advertising leaflets has been (non-consensually) pushed through the letterbox of the space. Like a frozen waterfall, they cascade through it. The invitation to the exhibition is enclosed in the folders. This is a meta-reference to the contemporary PR method through social media channels, where artists cut through advertisements and influencers to promote their own (non-profit) work or events. With this piece, I question the capitalist influence that the use of these media channels has on our work as artists, whether your work is commercial or not
