Curatorial context
RE:FWD, an interactive group exhibition, investigates hope as an active catalyst for transformation. Collaboratively developed by Bijbels Museum, NDSM FUSE, and Kunstlinie, this exhibition transcends a typical display, creating a nexus where past, present, and future intersect, utilizing art as a conduit for sharing stories, emotions, and viewpoints. The exhibition draws inspiration from a biblical verse (Romans 8:24-25), positing that hope is not merely about visible outcomes, but about the unseen potential of a future yet to be realized.
The exhibition showcases the work of 21 emerging artists who collectively reflect on themes of hope, the future, transformation, and their roles within these concepts. Artists such as Ahmad Mallah, Augustina Lavickaite, Charmaine de Heij, and many others, alongside the curators, aim to engage the audience, leaving them with a sense of awareness, hope, and activation.
