“Hoe plak ek die gate van my siel toe?
Die plakkers plak linoleum teen die harde sememt vloere, teen die mure… in die hoop dat ‘n lewe, ‘n leefstyl weer aanmekar geplak kan word.”

Burning Museum
This event is organized in corporation with gerilja/kurating and Burning Museum. The evening will start with an introduction by Chandra Frank, as a preview on the exhibition Re(as)sisting Narratives which will be hosted by Framer Framed in 2016.
