Metamorphoses in and around Hotel MariaKapel.

RE_constructing was the first project Daniel Dennis de Wit and I curated upon taking over artist-in-residence HMK {Hotel MariaKapel}, and it concerned itself with metamorphosis. In RE_constructing, we wanted to show works and artists that made our hearts beat faster:

Josh Greene, who each month dedicates one night’s worth of his earnings as a waiter to an art fund (the amount of each month’s grant is determined by his earnings of that specific night). Jelle Bakker, who in the construction of his gigantic marble-tracks pushes dedication and focus to amazing heights. Constant Dullaartbravely descends into the strange world of amateur film in order to assemble his own films. Jonathan Harchick, who no longer needs the art world, propells his uneasy productions into the world via the internet instead.”
