Esperanza de Vries

Atelier NDSM-plein 49, Kunststad, NDSM LOODS

Esperanza de Vries accumulates, stuffs, folds, packs, staples, leans, hangs, builds and unbuilds installations through which she hints at the sacred and the profane. The context reminds of that of the contemporary global south: lively, impermanent, precarious, full of shiny tiny gadgets, full of lightness, full of paradoxes. Her practice is the material manifestation of the urgency to build modern, modular, temporal shrines.
