INSIGHT INSIDE
INSTALLATION
An installation about the ongoing self-monitoring of young creatives.
︎
With the increasing influence of social media among young creatives, the pressure of forming a professional identity has become more present than ever. It is a necessity in becoming a professional, but it can, and often does, cause stress and it comes with a great deal of pressure. The answer to who you are as a creator can only be found within yourself. Therefore creatives, especially young creatives, are constantly asked to closely reflect on themselves.
With the installation Insight Inside Esmée Bruins and I invite you to step into the shoes of these young creatives. The installation plays with the expectations of the viewer. It looks as if there is something happening inside. However, when you take a look, the viewer is confronted with his/her own appearance.
EXHIBITION
︎
ACADEMIEGALERIE UTRECHT
18.04.19 - 11.05.19
Insight Inside is part of Echt_Def_2: an exhibition 14 HKU students from different artistic disciplines created. The exhibition was the result of one year of intensively working together, and represented where we stand as young creatives. Echt_Def_2 takes you with us on our way to becoming professionals. It explores what it means to constantly have to reinvent yourself and your identity in a world of social media and abundance of examples. The exhibition presents itself explicitly as a ‘work in progress’.
