Material as Narrative

Exhibition

2024

Indebt Space, Amsterdam

“Material as Narrative”, curated by KOLEKT, opened in November 2024 at Indebt Space in Amsterdam as part of our collaboration list for the 2024/2025 season.

The exhibition delved into the intimacy of surfaces, where texture becomes a language of its own. Material is not merely something to be seen; it is something the mind can touch, offering a way into a deeper understanding of form and presence. Coarse, delicate or impenetrable, the textures ask for active engagement rather than passive observation, and each surface carries a layered narrative of meaning and memory.

The exhibition brought together artists working across a variety of mediums.

With works by Iris Bavelaar, De Altura, Jerry Florez, Mateusz Godlewski, Natalia Gwiżdż, Xenia Kwiatkowska, Mikołaj Niżegorodcew, Vicent Orts, Agnieszka Owsiany, Aleksandra Powalacz, Julia Powalacz, Amalia Puga, Stanisław Stupkiewicz and Mateusz Wappa.
