There’s something in the house. Someone knocks on the door. A fallen exit sign – dust taking a familiar shape. Water boiling, misting the windows. Steps pulsating in the marrow of the wall. The dogs barked for a reason.

A time when the dogs barked every night is a group exhibition brought together by the participants of De Ateliers. Woonhuis will house a patchwork of speculative gestures: as a body of apparitions, as the intangible materialities of belonging, as the inaccessible in personal or generational histories, as ghosts of the private space. In, or as a home, possibly haunted.

The exhibition features works by Cameron Clayborn, Francisca Khamis Giacoman, Prem Sahib, Anastasia Sosunova, Abbas Zahedi, and Hazel Meggie Zander.

The show is curated by the second-year participants of De Ateliers: Finn Theuws, Flora Fritz, Greta Eimulytė, Levi van Gelder, Lizzy Deacon, Lorian Gwynn, Ruoru Mou, Sofía Salazar Rosales, Swan Lee, Tumelo Mtimkhulu.
