2025-2026 Meditation into a Hyperscaler - what later developed in “Alien Integration”
I performed with haptic objects, and a rotating table in various locations and settings. Often a guided meditation and/or seance guiding us through digital infrastructures and brain structures was part of these presentations. Different settings, with beginning or end, ongoing and with or without music.
Locations: RAUM Utrecht, Neuenationalgallerie Berlin, Bodeek - nadine Brussels,
Stichting B.A.D. Rotterdam (during rotterdam art week)
“(the) automagic stool”
November 2025
a new sculptural collaboration by Steven Jouwersma and Alban Karsten, co-curated and 𝘵𝘦𝘹𝘵 by Timmy van Zoelen, shown 7 & 8 November at Superdeals, Brussels.
As we approach Superdeals’ large display window, we see an archetypal office chair in a showroom setting, which serves as the basis for a new sculptural collaboration between Alban Karsten and Steven Jouwersma. Appendages such as wooden sculptural handles, sound, movement and painted elements are applied to this alleged piece of furniture, enabling Alban and Steven to merge both their art practices into one object.
