TENT Welcomes: V2_&PZI 'Was There a Paradise, or Was the Garden a Dream?'

In this exhibition, the 2022 graduates of the Lens-Based Media master’s program at the Piet Zwart Institute, in collaboration with V2_ and TENT, explore the medium of the lens as a way of reformulating our surroundings. Firstly, through gestures of revealing, deconstructing a subject to uncover its inner mechanisms and how these act upon us. Secondly, through gestures of construction, embracing subjectivity and the artifice of the tool and using these to manifest desired (alter-) realities. As such, the lens takes on not only a role of interrogation but also of constructing artifacts that reflect back to us new possibilities: heterotopias that serve as cracks in the fabric of established mythologies.
