Lenny van Hout & Mees van de Voren
We Stellen Ons Bloot is a duo exhibition by Lenny van Hout and Mees van de Voren — two self-taught artists who each explore mental health, personal growth, and everything that comes with it in their own distinct way. Their styles differ, sometimes even clash, yet both emerge from the same vulnerable core.The exhibition presents work born from chaos and the search for identity. An honest exhibition about vulnerability, about starting over, and about daring to show yourself — both as an artist and as a human being.

Indira de Boer
Last January, Indira de Boer spent two weeks walking through the Himalayas. This physical journey formed an artistic research process focused on the relationship between human, material, and landscape. During this trek, the artist explored how meaning-making shifts when the human scale is decentered in relation to the overwhelming presence of non-human entities.De Boer is interested in situations where form and structure meet under constraint. Rather than working with natural objects as given forms, they construct conditions that test how materials behave. Meaning is not predetermined; instead, each work is approached as a situation in which material can actively participate in the production of meaning.

Adriënne Verburg
"De benen nemen" (to take to one's legs/to bolt)—why do we say it that way? Instead of just saying "I'm leaving"? At the same time, people are judged if they don't speak "correct" Dutch. We accept all sorts of crazy proverbs, yet a tiny grammatical error can sometimes be enough to dismiss someone.I am fascinated by how we communicate with one another. How we take it for granted. How words follow rules, how objects communicate with us, and how we, in turn, interpret them. And then there are those proverbs, which often describe things whose meaning is no longer literal at all. Do we truly understand each other, or is that not the case and are we just pretending? In my work, I look for the confusion within proverbs sometimes by depicting them literally, sometimes by changing something small about them.
