Exploring RE:FWD: Art, Stories, and 'Your Mother Tongue'
The RE:FWD exhibition invites attendees to immerse themselves in a world of narratives, exploring stories through various artistic expressions. Co-curated by Mees Elias van Zanten, Thierno Deme, and Caithlin Courtney Chong, the exhibition features 21 artists who present their hopeful visions for the future. They utilize diverse mediums such as imagery, sound, and movement to challenge viewers' perceptions of language and communication.
This experience aligns with the Book Week 2025 theme, 'je moerstaal' (your mother tongue), highlighting how art serves as its own language for storytelling, emotional expression, and connection. The artists in RE:FWD share their perspectives in their unique 'mother tongues,' fostering new ways of contemplating language and future imagination.
