As the lights fade to a dim black we project into the ethereal space works and performances that blur any line, confuse any interpretations and represent the converging dualities embodied by the yin and yang. Inspired by the writings of Laozi and Zhuangzi, the works presented by Mireille Gros highlight Daoist principles that link humanity and nature in order to garner respect for and a newfound appreciation of nature.

Videos, photography, physical performances and music flash into the space and quickly dissipate back into the darkness. What will you see? What will you experience? Noone will answer the same way. So better find out for yourself!"

In association with Bi Art Paris, Loose Dog Magazine and De Bouwput.

Dear friends and extended community, 

We warmly invite you to a short but sweet exhibition at the De Bouwput, Friday 10^th December from 14.00 to 17.00 where the 2nd Year Graphic Design students will exhibit in collaboration with Werker collective.  

Chroma: Reassessing Colour from the Margins 

In this one day exhibition the participants will showcase their takes on the wide experience of color, ranging from participatory installations to audio experiences. The works are a result of a three month in-depth exploration of the political and personal significance of color and its effects on our lives and perceptions.  

We look forward to welcoming you and hope you can make it despite the awkward timing. We will provide drinks and ambiance.

During their stay as artists in residence, Aurélie, Kirsty and Ling experimented at AGA LAB and present their outcomes.

Aurélie Sorriaux is a visual artist based in Amsterdam. Her photographs are visual explorations through memory, experience and the complex state of existence. She examines the question of ourselves and the traces as layers of history.

Her previous projects examined the delineation of the family’s heritage across generations and how this history culminates in ourselves, along with a mapping of geographical landscapes, studying visible traces of time left upon the earth’s surface. During her two months as an artist in residence at AGALAB, she experimented with the silkscreen and the photopolymer process to deepen these two concepts. 

Kirsty Nicoll is a Scottish artist based in Leiden. Primarily a painter, her focus for the residency was silk screen printing in order to bring a more graphic quality to her work. As film photography is an integral part to her practice, developing and printing in the darkroom were also goals for the residency. 

Her project aimed to explore the Netherlands relationship with nature. Comparing to the wilderness of Scotland, her first observation on moving here was how nature is contained. Through its integration into the designs of city streets to filling the interiors of Dutch houses. This has an abstract quality; although everything you see is natural, it is an illusion as it was planned and created by man. Her aim at AGA LAB was to visualise and combine these conflicting ideas of design and nature.

Ling Chiu has been working in the lithography department for her second AIR visit and has produced a series of works based on historic, found, and encountered pigeon specimens in London. 

"Pigeons are where people are, all around the world, in every nook and cranny.  They make homes where they can, however, they can, just like us.  It's not their fault that we call some of them doves, and others flying rats, underneath, they're all the same."
