The exhibition ALIEN shows the results of a collaboration between artists Tommy Smits and Shani Leseman with artist from Zinderin Kunst: Mo Ameziane, Ellen Brinkman, Dyon Faber, Laurens Gabriël, Dustin Hofman, Liliane Jansen, Lonneke Klinkenberg, Bassam Mosa, Cyril Rosebel and Alex van Waveren.

 

While working with ceramics, they spoke about aliens and outer space. Together, they made a series of ceramic alien heads. The Alien can be seen as the ultimate Other: someone who exists outside your subjective bubble and is seen as different from yourself or your own group. Meeting an Other makes you question your own patterns, behaviors and what you consider to be normal. They went from alienation to familiarity with each other’s process and ideas, not only about aliens, but also about art and creating art. The exhibition functions as an UFO where their explorations of this big mystery can be seen.
