EXbunker

We live in a constant cycle of destruction and rejuvenation. The Earth is changing. We are
changing. How will a potential post-human life evolve and shape new visions of the world?
Four Fine Art students from the HKU (NL) and KASK (BE) explore these questions and reimagine
them in a site specific installation here at the ExBunker. New ground is given for nature to start
sprouting again and artefacts from a lost past will emerge, intertwined with contemporary and past
habits. The Bunker is transformed into a space of potential life that will survive even in an apocalyptic
scenario, similar to the Svalbard Global Seed Centre in Norway, harbouring its seeds and giving
them the opportunity to flourish again, giving rise to a new landscape that goes beyond the known
geographical and social boundaries. The installation comes to life, grows and reveals traces of a
long gone past, frozen in time, conjuring a speculative reality that is not far from the truth.

Tagine and Tulips

Fatine Benouari

Tagine and Tulips tells the story of my bi-cultural identity, inspired by my grandmother’s journey as a first-generation Moroccan woman in the Netherlands. By merging Moroccan craftsmanship with Dutch traditional dress into textiles and form, I create a dialogue between past and present, heritage and environment. My work is an ode to migration, cultural blending and the richness of growing up bicultural. It reveals stories that often remain unseen and invites recognition and connection. For me, fashion serves as a social instrument and becomes a bridge between worlds where identity is not fixed but constantly evolving.
