Binnenwerk van Editie 109: Onaf pagina 15 tot 36 met bijdragen van Yasaman Nozari, Sofie Crabbรฉ (interview met Marie Zolamian), Barbara Baert, Isabel Van Bos en Bart Caron.
Je kan Onaf nog steeds nabestellen op onze website of vinden bij sommige verdeelpunten!
Het onaffe is een breed begrip, dat โ hoe kan het ook anders โ vele voorlopige gedaantes aanneemt, van procesmatig en ontwikkelingsgericht tot onafgewerkt en onvoltooid. In rekto:versoโs lentenummer verkennen cultuurcritici en makers welke plaats het onaffe heeft binnen een kunstenbeleid dat vooral inzet op productie en resultaat. Of is โonafโ ondertussen zelf een beleidsfetisj geworden?
Met bijdragen van: Arne De Winde, Johan Herrenberg, Yasaman Nozari, Sofie Crabbรฉ: Interview met Marie Zolamian, Koen Sels, Arnout De Cleene, Evelyne Coussens, Colette Broeckaert, Barbara Baert, Isabel Van Bos, Hanne Janssens, Michiel De Cleene, Isolde Vanhee, Jagers & verzamelaars - collectief, Line Pillet, Ahilan Ratnamohan, Borokov Borokov, Bart Caron, Justine A. Chambers, Joke DโHeer, Tom Van Imschoot

In het dromerige universum van Marie Zolamian vormen hybride wezens, zeeรซn en plantaardige motieven een ingebeeld paradijs in voortdurende beweging. Mysterie en verrassende toespelingen meanderen door haar veelkleurige schilderijen, tekeningen en monumentale mozaรฏek in de zuilengalerij van het KMSKA. Als kunsthistorica kan Sofie Crabbรฉ zich niet aan de betovering van deze uit Libanon afkomstige multidisciplinaire kunstenaar onttrekken. Hoog tijd om haar in haar thuisbasis Luik te ontmoeten, voor een gesprek over loslaten, het onvoltooide en het onvoorziene.
Lees het interview op onze website, of in het nieuwe printnummer, link in bio.

Throughout the winter months, Galerie Gris became the atelier of artist Sarah Eechaut.
We warmly invite you to the finissage, where sound artist Jan DโHaene - @jan_dhaene_music -will delight us with a live concert. This performance features work from his latest album, Studio Music. A slow-paced work full of introspective passages performed on shells, cornet, and electronics. Music that invites stillness. His music embodies the tension between vulnerability and strength, between the individual and the universal. This also characterizes Eechautโs work, as does the presence of nature, our deepest essence. Very welcome to this intimate finissage at Sarah Eechautโs galery studio where Sofie Crabbรฉ - @sofcrabbe - will read her text on the artistโs creative process.

The books that left a deep and lasting impression on me in 2025, in no particular order.
Thank you for writing these wonderful books. Your sentences, ideas, and (in the case of novels) your characters linger with me, day after day.
โMany people who write about art want to hover above it. I want to slip beneath it and work hard to lift just a corner of its mystery.โ @sirihustvedt, during our talk at her home on August 9, 2025.
โRead everything, especially what you donโt understand.โ mother of @ocean_vuong
โYou have to move towards the unknown, the mystery. The condition of not knowing is the first step of knowledge. Donโt be afraid of not knowing. You owe it to yourself to go to the root of the mystery.โ @ocean_vuong in Oprahโs Book Club

Finally, today, on the International Day of Friendship, Iโm launching the presale of my book โVulva Obscuraโ! โจ๐
Iโve been looking forward to this so much! The vulva in all its beauty, and no fewer than 100 of them!
You can reserve your copy through my website.
The first 100 copies will receive a free Vulva Pin. The pins are made in collaboration with textile artist @charlottevandenborre ๐
The book launch will take place on October 22, 2025, at the @gumgent in Ghent. Save the date!!! ๐คธ๐ปโโ๏ธ
Thanks to everyone who made this possible. Especially all the women who participated.
Also @l_gthls for the help with my website. @giuliaboccarossa for the cover!
And @brunodevos @hopperandfuchs
Standing up for the vulva, removing shame from the labia, and showcasing its unprecedented diversity: thatโs the driving force behind Hanne Lamonโs photo project Vulva Obscura. By portraying the intimate spaces of one hundred women, she offers an unprecedented glimpse into this source of life force. She lifts the veil on what usually remains hidden, subtly revealing a wealth of unique manifestations. She shows how every vulvaโfrom the mons pubis and labia to the clitoris and the entrance to the vaginaโregardless of its development, is unique, special, and beautiful. Text by @sofcrabbe

Posted @withregram โข @artforum Musician-artist Bjรถrk talks with author-scientist Robin Wall Kimmerer for our October episode of Artists on Writers |Writers on Artists. Follow the link through our bio to listen or stream the full conversation. Note: this episode is available in audio format only.
Together they discuss subjects ranging from how language connects us to the natural world; the consequences โ both personal and global โ of living apart from nature; and what it means in our transient society to live in right relationship to the land. Bjรถrkโs latest album โFossoraโ is out with One Little Independent Records. Robin Wall Kimmererโs most recent book, โBraiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plantsโ, is available from Milkweed Editions.
