Instituto Buena Bista (IBB) and The Curaçao Museum invite you for an inspiring Artist Talk with the current Artist in Residence at IBB, Chant van Lieshout.
On Thursday, November 7, 2024
From 19:00 until 21:00
The Curaçao Museum
Chant, just like IBB, was also a participant in the celebrated Bosch Parade (in Den Bosch) this past summer with ‘Isteria Archipelago’ together with the Moss Social Club.
About Isteria Archipelago
Isteria Archipelago is drawn forth by organisms prone to pollution; they are exploited like slaves to their own destruction and demise. Two deformed fish roam the island, attempting to harness the destruction and turn it into something new, something beautiful, something hopeful. Although the pollution takes on terrible forms, every creature tries to take care of all the little worlds in which they find themselves and together they build a better universe.
During her residency on Curaçao, Chant is actively collaborating with IBB students, engaging them in creative exploration and hands-on projects. Her work, including “Sunflower, Mosquito, Knot, Coot”, reflects a fascination with the overlooked – from insects to found objects – and channels vulnerability, playfulness, and compassion into powerful sculptures and installations.
Take part in this unique evening and witness Chant’s artistic journey and her collaboration with the next generation of Curaçao’s artists.
On this evening you will also have a chance to view the exhibition Introspectives which also forms part of the international collaborative project ‘Your Contemporary Demons’ developed by six organizations from the Netherlands and Curaçao; Bosch Parade, Willem Twee Kunstruimte, Instituto Buena Bista Curaçao (IBB), The Curaçao Museum, Connections and St. Joost School of Art & Design.
