Glad @kunsthalkade.bsky.social exhibits renowned Lebanese-Palestinian artist Mona Hatoum, however it felt a little underwhelming. The urgency and visceral aspects that so typify her oeuvre did not fully come across. Lost opportunity to contextualise her practice amid the ongoing violence in 🇵🇸 🇱🇧.

Excellent show ‘Stitch Witch’ by Dutch-American artist Lara Schnitger at Museum Kranenburgh. Love her ‘Slut Sticks’ that performatively repurpose lingerie and are intended to be sculptural as well as be actively used during protest marches.
