Lifting Takes More Than Muscle

5 photographers meet by chance and put their archives together. Using a made-up story based on a photograph by one of them, they make a considered selection from each one’s archive. A fictional sixth photographer exhibits at ‘Lifting Takes More Than Muscle’ with this newly assembled series.
Things To Hold On To
Groupshow at Netwerk Aalst (BE) / With work from Marleen Limbourg and Yana Barrez.
The central theme of the exhibition arose from an emotional confrontation with the monumental waste bales in Veurne’s Spinnery. We read poetry and see imagery in the beauty, fragility and, at the same time, character of the compressed sisal.
- Marleen Limbourg, conceptual artist, knots Waste to Meaning.
- Iwein De Keyzer, photographer, meanders along paths of the mind.
- Yana Barrez, choreographer, makes contrarian movements to the cadence of textile machines
- Music by Sam Huge, Video by Dominique Hoornaert.
Desolate
With Desolate’ Iwein gathers visual anecdotes on the street. His images are snapshots of that one second, spurred on by a surprising stimulus. He abstracts recognizable scenes, turning them into desolate places, and records reality as if suddenly tripping over it, encountering it when no one was looking.
