NEW WAVE: Future Voices in Art, a group exhibition, showcases six room-filling installations by The Nest (Nairobi, Kenya), Nifemi Marcus Bello (Lagos, Nigeria) and Rotterdam-based artists Marga Weimans, Ameneh Solati, Yuro Moniz and Elejandro Martinez. These artists represent an international movement in art that addresses global issues through collective experiences and local ecosystems. NEW WAVE breaks with the concept of ‘low’ and ‘high’ art and centres everyday life.

Created by Nifemi Marcus Bello, Pródogêrsie is an installation contextualized through the ties that bind West-Africa, Surinam and The Netherlands. This new version of the continuously evolving pavilion design is a collaboration with Dutch-Surinamese textile designer Frank Remak – known for his graphic symbolism rooted in Surinamese storytelling. The pavilion is surrounded by moving images from the ongoing research project, Africa – A Designer’s Utopia, a study of the Kwali – a mobile kiosk created by street vendors in Lagos.
