Everything is on the One is a Gesamtkunstwerk with continuous dynamics, where always something is happening. A performance, dj set, artist talk, poetry recital, artists at work or just somebody hosting and open for conversation. The spaces of Arti are transformed into Zen and Chaos. This division will strike a balance between intensity and socalled resting points. Everything is on the One uses the concept of unity, a totality, the full circle, the Ouroboros. The title of the show refers to this idea but seen from a Funky point of view. Made legendary by James Brown and George Clinton, among others.
The One is the collective rhythm that takes the music to a cosmic level. Each individual rhythm is important for the total session. This requires a certain openness to cooperation from each participant. Everyone’s unique talent is used to collectively rise above themselves.
This place for experimentation, failure, succes, discussion will merge into a pulsating energy and allows the audience to experience and be part of that “Oneness”.

I am absolutely thrilled to share a significant milestone in my artistic journey! With immense gratitude, I am excited to announce that I will be embarking on an Artist in Residency at Het Lage Noorden in Friesland, generously supported by The Mondriaan Fonds.

From September 2023 to December 2023, I will be immersing myself in a captivating exploration of new artistic realms. This endeavor will center around the integration of Earthships and Rocket Mass Heaters, reflecting my deep commitment to sustainable living and the pursuit of tangible solutions for a more eco-friendly future.

In my recent research at Het Lage Noorden, I’ve taken a holistic approach, weaving together elements of sustainable architecture and heating systems. This aligns seamlessly with the broader themes of my work, where the finite nature of materials converges with the transformative potential of objects.

I am incredibly excited to invite you to a special presentation on the 3rd of December, where the culmination of this artistic exploration will be unveiled. Expect a rich interplay of mediums and concepts contributing to an ongoing discourse on failure, success, and the societal landscapes we inhabit.

I am grateful for your continued support, and I hope you join me on this exciting artistic journey!

🗓️ Residency Period: September 2023 to December 2023 🎨 Presentation Date: 3rd December 2023
