Oemoemenoe #4: Oval Window
We cordially invite you to the exhibition and finissage of the fourth edition of 鈥極emoemenoe鈥. 鈥極emoemenoe鈥 is part of Vleeshal鈥檚 Local Nomadic Program in which contemporary artists are invited to develop a project in collaboration with local associations and businesses in Zeeland - sports clubs, swimming pools, hotels and restaurants.
For this fourth edition, Vleeshal invited the collective Syzygy (Brieke Drost, Mireille Tap en Veerle Melis) to create an exhibition with artists from Zeeland in a 鈥榩raathuisje鈥 (translation: conversation pavillion) at the harbor in Yerseke. Syzygy invited artists Ingrid van de Linde, broeder Dieleman and Janne van Gilst and together they developed the exhibition Oval Window, which is on view in the pavilion from July 25 to September 14. The artworks in this exhibition are combined with photographs of boats that are collected by the men who use the pavillion.
The title Oval Window is based on the part of the human auditory system of the same name. The oval window in our ear is essential for hearing, similar to how the 鈥榩raathuisje鈥 is a window for stories and traditions of the local community. By collaborating with the users of the 鈥榩raathuisje鈥 鈥 mainly local (male) residents meet each other here to look at the harbor and the Oosterschelde 鈥 Syzygy and the artists they invited will bring new perspectives and dialogues to this special place.
