All Day 9 – 30 May – Kriterion kleine foyer
A selection of photographs by Dutch artist Jesse van den Berg. Their work is an ongoing exploration of queerness around them and within themselves. Vulnerability and celebration play an important role.
Jesse van den Berg (they/them) (1996, NL) is an artist who researches the topic of queerness with a focus on intimacy. Jesse’s work is an ongoing exploration of queerness around them and within themselves. They look for ways to express their vision and that of collaborators through lens-based media where vulnerability and celebration play important roles. It’s crucial for Jesse to stay aware of the power a camera can hold and how this affects the interaction between ‘the model’ and ‘the maker’. They integrate intimacy and integrity in their work but also in the whole process of making, and explore how intimacy can be translated through material and installation work. With Jesse’s practice, they create an experience of love, admiration, and vulnerability.
