Bad Color Combos surveys the recent work of artist Yto Barrada (France, 1971), including film, textiles, photography and sculpture. This solo exhibition brings together Barrada's work from the last five years and specially newly developed work. This is her first solo exhibition in the Netherlands with previously unexhibited, multidisciplinary work.
In Bad Color Combos, Yto Barrada examines cultural phenomena, personal histories and natural processes. From a feminist and ecological perspective, Barrada brings forward various themes such as the acceleration and deceleration of time, motherhood, play, the craft of dyeing with natural dyes and colour as a material; traditions of modernism and our futile attempts to control nature.14:00 – 16:00
