| | THE REVOLUTIONS THAT DID (NOT) HAPPEN | @ De Pont, Tilburg
Film by Silvia Martes
Body parts hung from a clothesline, mannequins that come to life and human teeth as currency: the Silvia Martes film The Revolutions That Did (Not) Happen (2021), which will premiere in the project space WOOL, quickly gives rise to a sense of the uncanny. But with her unpredictable science-fiction tales reminiscent of Roald Dahl, Martes keeps us riveted to the image.

@ De Pont, Tilburg
Matter may be living, nonliving, or dead – you might expect the distinctions to be explained in an elementary biology lesson. But are those distinctions really as clearcut as they may seem? Isabelle Andriessen explores in her sculptures the gray area between them. Her sculptures contain elements that react to each other and their surroundings, so that her works are constantly in motion.
