I would be a jacket, Keep up with the sample tracks. / collaboration with Nello Margodt, 2024

In this performance/installation, I collaborated with Nello Margodt. We each have different conceptual views on what happened. The exhibition centers around clothes. As you move through the living room, you’ll see my favorite pieces of clothing drawn on the wall. Nello created coat hangers specifically for these drawings. For me, this series is about exploring my masculinity, simply questioning it—nothing more. The installation was accompanied by a performance in which we theatrically explored the actions we take with clothing: how we wear it, fold it, hang it, and so on.

It is the cake you should get a bite out. You shouldn't try to bite a shark. You should try to kiss a girl. A bite out of the shark is less satisfying then a bite out of the cake. The jawline of the shark is impressive. Like the jawline of a girl can be. The cake doesn't have a jawline. The cake makes your jawline. The toppings are yours. But do not choose the toppings out of necessity. Choose it because of wat the topping is. Not wat the topping should be. The topping you should be, already has been decided. Like the shark is decided. You shouldn't bite the shark. You should try to kiss the girl. And try to bake the cake.
