The duo exhibition ‘Error Alloy’ by Tyron Winter and Vince Donders is extended until May 2nd.

In Error Alloy, Tyron Winter (.tyron) and Vince Donders () bring together two practices in which matter appears as a carrier of time. The exhibition connects questions of climate, humanity, and decolonial perspectives to the materiality of the works themselves: to body, pigment, metal, and decay.

As the gallery will be attending Art Brussels, we will be open by appointment only this weekend.We are also pleased to share that Error Alloy has been extended through 2 May.Please join us for drinks at the finissage.

Today is the last day of this show by the collective To See the Inability to See — Maartje Fliervoet, Martín La Roche Contreras, and Arefeh Riahi.
Departing from the theme of refusal as both an act of creation and resistance, the collective has brought together a series of new works.

Arefeh, in addition to her foldable objects which create a platform and dialogue with Martín’s drawings from the “Magic Box” series, has experimented with new folds on paper. Inspired by the folds of Muqarnas, she continues to explore ideas related to the hashti — an entrance room in traditional Central Iranian architecture. The hashti is a space where host and guest meet, a room of possibility, acceptance and refusal, resistance, and the re/negotiation of boundaries.
In her fold drawings, Arefeh examines possible reactions within the hashti, using the infinitive form of verbs in Farsi. The texts function like a voice embedded within the folds of the wall or the dome. These works also reflect on the undecidability of language and communication.

Final week 𝙊𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙉𝙤𝙘𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙣𝙖𝙡 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙈𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝘿𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙧𝙞𝙤𝙪𝙨 𝙎𝙪𝙢𝙢𝙞𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙄𝙢𝙖𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣

by To See the Inability to See (Maartje Fliervoet, Martín La Roche Contreras and Arefeh Riahi) shows new pieces evolved from their multidisciplinary project titled My Garden’s Boundaries Are the Horizon. 

Refusal as an act of creation involves a genealogy of words. For instance,”waste,” in relation to the Latin r-e-f-u-s, which means “to pour back,” as in the “pouring back” of waste water. Or the English word “refusal,” that was derived from “refus,” linking “waste” to “resistance”. 

In the case of Maartje Fliervoet’s leftover textile and indium piece, based on mine tailings and image production, “refus” and “refusal” merge, taking on the shape of letters and words unfolding in the gallery space. Together, the works reference leftovers and byproducts; remainders of a production process.

On view until 20/12/’25

A house is not a home by

Rein Kooymans explores the idea that home is not defined by a location or a structure, but a sense of belonging.
The exhibition traces this shift between two homes; From the imposing landscape of the French Alps to a quiet garden in Amsterdam at

the works in the exhibition brings together elements from both worlds; photographs of installations made with natural materials from the rocky landscapes of the Écrins, and objects gathered from the new garden at

After the presentation concludes, Kooyman will return the materials to their origin, symbolizing the cyclical nature of existence and the impermanence of our human constructs
