Mijn liefde is een booreiland dat met trots het gehele ecosysteem vernielt
Willemijn van Calker offers a new perspective on spectatorship. What are you looking at, how are you looking, and, most importantly, what are you allowed to see? She excludes you from a myriad of intimate narratives, leaving you aware of their presence, yet unable to access them. Jealousy arises. She takes deliberate authorship over your perception, and through an anthropological lens, investigates how exclusion affects you.
Letting you wither and wonder, patching together fragments, Willemijn’s work lives in the spaces between your missing pieces. Through illustration, installation, poetry, and prose, she lovingly offers you glimpses of it all.
