A new exhibition dissects the omnipresent nature of ‘the hoodie’ within the last century. Curated by writer and curator Lou Stoppard, the exhibition considers the role of the hoodie as a socio-political carrier and takes a deep dive into the story of the hoodie, tracing photography, film, installation, fashion, social media and other cultural artefacts.

Fascinated by the black and white and the minimalism of the lighting effects, the photographer Hengki Koentjoro, a native of Indonesia, immortalized the young boys of the Indonesian island Alor. In his project "The Boys of Alor", he delivers a series of monochrome shots, most of them captured underwater. We discover a group of young boys having fun there, between the oxygen bubbles which rise to the surface of the water and the sun rays which cross it.

The Embroidered Computer is an exploration into using historic gold embroidery materials and knowledge to craft a programmable 8 bit computer. Solely built from a variety of metal threads, magnetic, glas and metal beads, and being inspired by traditional crafting routines and patterns, the piece questions the appearance of current digital and electronic technologies surrounding us, as well as our interaction with them.
