28 MAY, 9 PM (CEST)

How do we want to live? What alternatives are there to dominant forms of ownership and market-driven housing policies, at a time when space is becoming scarcer and more expensive and citizens are being pushed out of their homes? Fucking Good Art is an editorial art project by Robert Hamelijnck and Nienke Terpsma, which revolves around oral history, counterculture, self-organization and DIT-do it together. With this 30-minute introduction FGA will digitally open the exhibition at TENT!

In the past year we have all learned some new vocabulary. From guilt-tripping, to gaslighting, from love bombing to blame-shifting, techniques of emotional manipulation became easily digestible in bite-sized social media posts and tik tok videos. Popular culture from movies to music has been propagating what is now described as narcissistic behavior. This evening MAMA will chronicle your average toxic relationship through exploring some of these terms and their effects through popular music.

We will ask: What brought Na­talia back to her en­dan­gered mother tongue Buryat? How re­con­nect­ing to her lan­guage has in­flu­enced her work? How does she use rep­e­ti­tion and rhythm as con­cep­tual tools? What are her tech­niques to in­flu­ence the emo­tions of the viewer?
