Théo Demans on creating physical space of togetherness for immaterial practices
How can we (re)learn a language of ecology? How do we facilitate care? Going beyond safe-spaces, what other forms of togetherness can we provide?
Theo Demans (they/them) is making sculptures and scenographies. Théo’s work revolves around transforming intangible practices into tactile, immersive experiences. Théo creates contemporary ritualistic environments that invite active audience participation, fostering moments of togetherness and collective bond. Théo is involved in various co-creations with artists, such as the duo touche-touche with Carolin Gieszner, as well as curatorial endeavors. Alongside Melanie Bonajo, they represented the Dutch pavilion at the 59th Venice Biennale of Art. www.ttsdms.eu
Théo was part of S02E01: NO TIME TO WASTE – an exhibition at the swimming pool in 2019 w/ Elise Ehry and Willem de Haan.

Müge Yilmaz on science fiction and ecofeminism to envision potential futures – in collaboration with University of Groningen / art & enviroment
In her work, Müge Yilmaz examines the paradoxes around the concept of protection with focus on community, survival and belief (faith). Through performances, photographs and installations she creates immersive atmospheres inspired by feminist science-fiction. Following the concept of three ecologies for observing the mental (subjective), societal and environmental developments in a parallel method, she uses image and performance as tools for envisioning potential futures. By keeping protection as a common denominator, her research creates speculations on preservation and scarcity. She constantly looks for trigger points in shape of visual manifestations that provoke subconscious reactions and reflexes.

material alchemy – a recap of the artist talk
Nov 14 '23 | by our reporter: Violeta Gamino Romero
"on the evening of the 8th of November, the voids and fillings of Hilde Onis occupied the spaces of het resort, both mentally and physically through a conversation with Klaudija Ylaite, our guide through the exchange of ideas in this new series studium resort.
Hilde Onis shapes spaces, sometimes filling gaps and other times embracing them with her works. primarily focused on ceramics, as she feels a special ability to create it, she turns her liquid ideas into stone, oscillating between the in-between spaces." (...) read more.
