Some people say: “The artwork is inseparable from the artist”.

In the case of Cathleen Owens this dictum is not only true by evident but concept. In her performative video works she applies linguistic variations such as change of pronunciation, color of tone, and emotional transmissions to such dictums, hearsay, platitudes, and ‘old wife tales’ we all know too good.
In her pursuit to counteract her and our super-ego or conscience, it is sometimes lost what came first: Her art practice or the doubts about it?

What we can say with certainty is that her messages are more than mere repetitions of mantras on how to do or not to do things, namely a mirror for a society stuck in a feedback loop.

At Improv Nights artists from all disciplines are invited to present unfinished work to an audience in an intimate atmosphere.

This time we will welcome Lieze De Middelier:

“In October 22, I traveled to Israel and Palestine. I took some sculptures with me. All these sculptures are pieces of skin of models. Casts of their beautiful skin, but also from traces that clothes leave in our bodies. Those pieces of skin traveled with me trough Palestine and Israel.”

Lieze is a sculptor with a special interest in the human body. In her recent process she introduces photography to re-contextualise her casted skin fragments - a medium which is completely new in her work. On this evening she will ‘test-present’ a new series of works to us. Please feel welcome to come by, have a drink, and give Lieze some feedback on her form of presentation.

The Annual Post-Annual is the annual exhibition and New Years Borrel with works from all the artists who exhibited at the Home Gallery during the last year. The Annual Post-Annual takes place in January and inaugurates the new season at the Home Gallery.

I understand my role as a curator as a collagist, who’s task it is to combine objects of any media from one or many artists into one coherent aesthetic composition.

Curating this exhibition was special to me. In contrast to the Vis à Vis’, in which I engage in a creative dialogue with one artist, this exhibition is a group show. Therefore, intersections, crossovers, and analogies between the works had to be found. Fortunately, the artists made it easy for me and I deeply thank them for entrusting me - once again - with their work and let me interfere. To create the installation you will see on Friday, was a great experience and a lot of fun.

Jan Huijben
Katherina Heil
Rik Möhlmann
Davide Ghelli Santuliana
Luis Alonso Sánchez
& Alexander Johannes Heil

In Luis Alonso Sánchez's paintings tar, material from the boarder between the United States of America and Mexico, sand and other substances from his birthplace the border town of Tijuana come together in linear gestures, expression of locomotion, as well as motion of the body through space and terrain.

A package arrives at my house. I just came out of the shower. The DHL postal worker hands me the package and we laugh as I am just wearing a towel. Now the package is standing in the middle of my gallery for a week or so - untouched but not unregarded.

I am thinking: "What is all the fuss about - about this border between Mexico and the U.S.? As I know from conversations with Luis, people are crossing the border to the U.S. regularly - to work or to buy things. This package, which is now standing in front of me, took almost less than a week to arrive here. Where is this boarder everyone is so hysterical about?"


GAME OVER,

De Fabriek Eindhoven is one of the oldest art initiatives in the Netherlands. It is situated in a former bookbinding factory with two main floors. A vast cellar with a series of concrete columns and a great hall with a vaulted ceiling. It's particular sound qualities and the sounds the building creates by itself are often topic of conversation during exhibitions and events at de Fabriek.

Alexander Johannes Heil sees the building as a huge instrument with it's own agency. From field recordings he took at de Fabriek during September and October 2022, he created a geo-located spatial composition with a radius of approximately 2 km. Like in a cubist painting the spectator will experience the sound objects scattered, simultaneously, and overlapping in time and space while approaching the building. Please bring your Smartphone and Headphones! This work is an audio piece accessible via the smartphone app Echoes. Echoes is funded through Echoes Labs projects and its wonderful Open Collective community (no ads, no data sales).

"We depart from an empty space, enclosed by grids of industrially produced serial objects. Tiles, windows, window frames, concrete slabs with rectangular cassettes; a monument of advanced "gridization." Yet, grids do not solely dominate our physical environment. They facilitate and rule cyberspace, our communication technologies, and make each point on the map as good as any other. They emerge as models as we dive deeper and understand more clearly how our brain constructs our reality."

During the exhibition period, Davide and I will work on an inspiring program for you. From Shark Tarot to Shark-Based-Meditation (SBM), evrything can be possible. Let your self be surprised and stay tuned via the homegallery instagram account.
more info soon...

ST LAB 2022 : HOLY GRID! takes place from August 12th to September 23rd at Billytown The Gallery in The Hague and simultaneously at Sala de Espera in Tijuana Baja California, Mexico.
