The Supreme Exodus LAB

Last months students worked together with artist Antonio Jose Guzman to create an exuberant collection of costumes, masques and head pieces. Inspired by the ongoing project of Guzman on migration, DNA and origin, the students make costumes of the most diverse materials. The exterior of matrasses – symbolic for the items migrants take with them across the border-, folded paper, dolls and flags. In addition, fifty m2 textile is screenprinted to use in the costumes. In addition to the presentation in the Koepelzaal, the costumes will be worn in a procession during the Biennial of Havana in April 2019. 

Project Coordinators: Sanne Boekel, Margriet Brouwer & Iva Jankovc
