OPENING: MAY 21ST 18-22H

Two Suns At Once at Treehouse NDSM is an exhibition about the fertile meeting ground between visual art and music, encouraging artists to collaboratively develop new work or present existing collaborative projects that complement and amplify one another. At the heart of this exhibition lies the idea of connection and linkage through art. At the same time, questions about authorship arise: what emerges when two distinct languages, sound and visual art, converge? Can two suns shine at once or does it become a hybrid? Can artists maintain a recognisable individual voice within collaboration and is that even necessary? Or has the emphasis on individual authorship become outdated and should we look more at collective art practices?

‍

The exhibition is curated by Treehouse artist Vico Persson and Treehouse artistic coordinator Mulan Go.
