‘Soelaas’ is about snackbars, laundries and public toilets. Places like this – places that radiate human loneliness in a certain way – show us that humankind is not perfect. Not that this is a bad thing: it is part of being human. We don’t have to pretend that we always eat healthy, that we are never lonely, that we have mastered life. These places comfort us.

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.
