THE STORY WITHIN AND BEYOND
SEE LAB, DEN HAAG
2.2.- 1.6.2018.
The Story Within and Beyond examines the manifestation and the potential of a “narrative” from various perspectives and throughout different media. It took place from February until June and brought four duo exhibitions and two performances of mainly Hague young emerging artists. It's See Lab's aim to offer the new project space to artists of different disciplines so they can experiment and create new works or develop the existing ones in relation to the See Lab exhibition space.

HEADING FOR THE PURPLE PLANET
ANNABELLE SCHATTEMAN
ST. AMANDUS CHAPEL, CAMPO SANTO
GHENT, BELGIUM
June 2017
Heading for the purple planet. The new series of anthropomorphic, mostly female or sexless sculptures by Annabelle Schatteman. The artist continues her sculptural work inspired by female iconography and keeps experimenting with the combinations of different materials, at the same time giving her work an unfinished note what makes her work sketchy like. She neither hesitates to give to materials symbolic meanings... So that she could tell her vision about human and female strength and fragility in details, the story about the masked and unprotected humanity. About the continuation of life.
FROM THE UNKNOWN DESTINATION TO THE REST OF THE WORLD
SARA RAJAEI
DIOCLETIAN PALACE BASEMENTS
SPLIT
June 2017
The exhibition in Diocletian’s Basements comprises four different works, in three variants of the same medium, depicting four different corners of the world and mentalities. We are talking about a recent video installation In the Gaze of Panoptes (2016), a short film The Motel in the Well (2016), a video installation Objects of Purely Sentimental Value (2010), and a short biopic Shahrzad (2009). Each of the four works was inspired by the stories and people from different countries, Norway, Croatia/Bosnia and Herzegovina, Holland, Iran… However, each of the works tends to be universal in its own right. That is where the exhibition title From an Unknown Destination to the Rest of the World… comes from.
