TMI : searching for truth in the post-truth era
07 August t/m 23 August
Nieuwe Vide
Minckelersweg 6
2031 EM Haarlem
In our current media and political landscape, it sometimes feels as if we have become caught up in an absurdist drama. We no longer know for certain if the information we always assumed to be true can still be trusted. Who investigates what is going on, who distributes, and determines what our ‘facts’ are? Information is scrutinized with increasing criticism, but how do we know what is actually trustworthy?

NEW FASHION COLLECTION
Amsterdam, NL
Yokai edition
Japan-inspired hand-printed fashion collection
Lyubov Matyunina went to Japan and research into the Yokai* culture. Her research transformed into this very special collection. Each item is hand-printed using block printing technique which makes each print unique and individual. Slow fashion as it is! Each print has a different intensity and not perfect, as according to Japanese philosophy wabi-sabi, acceptance of transience and imperfection.
Artist dye t-shirts by herself, inspired by the Sakura color, she created a dusty pink gradient.
Each item is hand-printed and unique!
*Yokai are a class of supernatural monsters, spirits, and demons in Japanese folklore.
THOUSAND EYE YOKAI
Costume and mask based on Japanese folklore about a class of supernatural monsters, spirits, and demons.
Produced in Itoshima, Japan.

PORTABLE HOMELANDS
Video installation
Wilhelminastraat 100-1
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Presentation of the new project
“Portable homelands”, departs from Homi Bhabha’s idea that,
“In-betweenness is a fundamental condition of our times”. It is a project that again goes back to persistent themes in my work of tensions of identity, specifically Russian identity. I am Baltic Sea Russian by birth, but I am also attached to the Mediterranean, Central Asia, and Europe by choice and see myself as both an Amsterdammer and global soul. This variety of attachments has resulted in many stories, myths and fairy tales departing from the idea of portable homelands and malleable identities. I would like to investigate the continuity of the clan and history, land and family, nature and human as well as ideas of in-betweenness and belonging.
