We Sell Reality hosted workshops and gatherings at Framer Framed. their work resulted in the exhibition, Powerplay - Deals All Over. They are continuing their work as part of the Social Practice Workshops at the Rijksakademie with Elke Uitentuis.
In this exhibition, We Sell Reality reflects on the paradox of closed borders for some and open borders for others. Their projects express a Europe that disappoints through its failing asylum policy. They visualise a need for survival and what it means to be uprooted, but also showcase the pride, love and strength of the participants. During the exhibition, they sold books, toys and artwork made by the group to raise money to continue their practice.
