Becoming Earths
June 2 - July 8 2023
Becoming Earths gathers speculative gestures of future feminisms embedded in reciprocal life with nature. The imaginative rewriting of new realities from feminist perspectives entangles common resources for the reproduction of life grounded in the potentialities with earth. With a constellation of artworks by Manjot Kaur (IN), Anouk Kruithof (NL) and Elisa Strinna (IT), the exhibition proposes embodied alternatives to the existing dualistic constructions of nature and culture.

This spring's exhibition at Tensta Konsthall poses the following question: How can the understanding of cultural heritage be decolonized by societies and organizations shaped by European knowledge systems? In this project, Charles Esche, director of the Van Abbemuseum and Tensta Konsthall engages in dialogue with a number of artworks, artists, researchers and guest curators with the purpose of looking closer at how western-centric perception of cultural heritage can be challenged and redefined.

Ac/kademie #5: The Tree That Grew Out of My Womb
with Asha Karami, Manjot Kaur, Marie Caye, moderated by Ruby Hoette
​
Tue 15 MAR 2022
3-way hybrid performance
​
How do your ideas about fertility and motherhood affect your behavior and choices?
What does it mean to be fertile or infertile?
What is the future of organic reproduction while digital replication and production of consumer goods is exploding?
What happens if you see yourself as the parent of all animate and inanimate things?
​
The 5th edition of the Ac/kademie series hosts a 3-way hybrid performance by Jan van Eyck alumni Asha Karami, Manjot Kaur and Marie Caye. Together with the public, they explore the topics of sexuality, fertility and parenthood through an abstract, interactive approach that goes beyond associations tied to human reproductive organs and childbirth. Caught between an organic and technological world the three artists try to navigate their way through the linguistic, visual and auditory representations of these themes. The event is moderated by Jan van Eyck participant Ruby Hoette.
​
Ac/kademie: A series of artist-lead conversations amongst the residents of the Jan van Eyck Academie and of the Rijksakademie, two post-academies in the Netherlands. This series is organized in collaboration with the Rijksakademie, the Saastamoinen Foundation and the Academy of Fine Arts, Uniarts, Finland.
