Closing Sessions & Close Encounters

Kunsthal Extra City, MORPHO and OUT OF SIGHT are joining forces on Saturday, 28th September. We are warmly inviting you for a full day of events in our neighbourhood. For Kunsthal Extra City and MORPHO this day marks a start of Closing Sessions, a new collaborative ritual that celebrates the ending of an exhibition and an artist residency at their shared locations in the monastery. For OUT OF SIGHT it is the second chapter of the long-term project CLOSE ENCOUNTERS. A series of audio-visual performances in which we taste and we smell, we see and then we hear. Through senses we meet each other and the world around us.
