Interested in spaces of convergence between different facets of knowledge, Mazen Al Ashkar seeks a relationality to the unprecedented ecological, economical and sociopolitical predicaments by playing with elements of and inbetween the binaries of Humanism, such as the rational-irrational, the scientific-superstitious. Seeking an interdisciplinary practice his work takes shape through multimedia installations, video and sound art.

Born in Syria in 1989, graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts, Damascus University in 2013 and received an MFA in Artistic Research from the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague in 2021.

In the EXBUNKER he will be experimenting with a sonic interplay with infrastructural material, listening to and playing with byproducts of systems of connectivity and utility.

Between Tides

Marco Sleumer

Between Tides is an immersive installation in which Marco Sleumer explores a new part of his inner world and enters a new stage of life. Just as tide pools form between ebb and flow, he finds himself in a liminal phase, a transitional space between being a student and entering adulthood. This symbolism lies at the centre of the project.The installation features organic sculptures inspired by a symbiosis of corals and fungi. Their growth patterns, shapes, structures, and colors are translated into imaginative creations that seem almost alive.
