An interactive installation about how colonisation has shaped itself economically in modern
times.

We as Dutch people have colonised many different countries in our past for our own
economic growth. Fortunately, those times are over. We have confessed our guilt, said
sorry, changed signs on statues and are teaching our children what we did in our past. All so
that we can sleep soundly.

Yet many people do not know that colonisation still occurs in this day and age and has taken
on a new form in a cunning way. Large companies still have power over the colonised
countries and we as colonisers play a major role in this.

Just like in the past, we still steal everything that glitters or shines, just like magpies
(eksters), whilst the blisters (eksterogen) of the exploited only grow bigger by the day.

The Altar

Alicia Hofstra

The Altar is a textile installation that explores the Alicia Hofstra's relationship with the concept of ‘worship.’ The work incorporates numerous references to their past within Protestantism, alongside personal hyperfixations, which are presented as alternative forms of devotion. Drawing inspiration from the overwhelming visual richness of castles and ornately decorated churches, the installation seeks to immerse the viewer in a similarly intense atmosphere. Viewers are invited to navigate this eclectic altar and reflect on their own position within it.
