To return value to the earth, she investigates alternative forms of building and living together. For example, Lokko uses coconut waste and mycelium (fungal thread) to design large-scale gateways and tunnels at Z33. By using recycled natural resources from Ghana, she aims to reduce the further depletion of exhausted land.
Grounds for Return consists of a series of installations created specifically for Z33, a mural designed with Nana Afua Pierre Haynes and a table installation developed during her inaugural residency with the Ghanaian artist El Anatsui in Accra and designed in collaboration with the culinary artist and chef Selassie Atadika.

Climate change is everywhere, yet it is largely invisible in our daily lives. It is as if we have been thrust into the eye of the storm, a threatening silence surrounded by crushing winds. This image holds true especially for the Caribbean, where hurricanes have caused great damage and revealed deep inequalities. What once seemed like a distant future for Europe is already a reality there, and recent natural disasters suggest that the future is now. How do Caribbean artists respond to these experiences? How do they take action? What is their relationship to their environment? These questions are at the core of the exhibition In the Eye of the Storm.
Montreal-based multidisciplinary artist, Manuel Mathieu (1986, HT) is known for his paintings, which investigate themes of historical violence, erasure, as well as Haitian visual cultures of physicality, nature, and religious symbolism.

Daniel Lind-Ramos creates imposing figures from everyday materials found in his immediate environment. They evoke the history of Loíza, the Afro-Caribbean community where he has lived for his whole life.

Computer code and traditional crafts are not the mother tongue of designers Claire Warnier and Dries Verbruggen. Nevertheless, they create unusual confrontations between the two, independent of prevailing norms in design practice. The untranslatable and unexpected always come to the fore. At the same time, their projects are an exploration of the digital-analog gap, with attention to technical skill, intellectual property and the uniqueness of an identical object. The exhibition a combmaker’s tale is a fine example of this. The lecture given by Dries focuses on the projects of the past ten years, the thread of which leads to a combmaker’s tale. The final question of Dries will be answered by Amber Roucourt, master student ceramics at PXL MAD School of Arts.
This Artist Talk connects to Unfold’s exhibition a combmaker’s tale, which is on view at Z33 from 2nd December untill Sunday 28th March 2021. The Talks are a collaboration of Z33 with PXL MAD School of Arts, LUCA School of Arts campus C-Mine and UHasselt Faculty of Architecture and Art.

As Scott explains in her book, Outlaw Territories: Environments of Insecurity/Architectures of Counter-Insurgency (Zone Books, 2016), the politics of self-help housing are highly ambiguous. While critics maintain that self-help implies an abdication of social responsibility, advocates claim that it allows the urban poor to control their own destiny. This latter group ranges from anarchist activists to laissez-faire economists, showing the convergence of different ideologies around the ideal of personal autonomy.
At this event, Lewitt and Scott will discuss how self-help housing encapsulates larger social and economic contradictions. The conversation will be moderated by Tim Roerig, curator of the exhibition CURE (the Work). The final question from Sam Lewitt will be answered by Milan Gillard, student OPEN-LAB at PXL MAD School of Arts.
This Artist Talk connects to Sam Lewitt’s exhibition CURE (the Work), which is on view at Z33 from Sunday 4 October untill Sunday 31 January 2021. The Artist Talks are a collaboration of Z33 with PXL MAD School of Arts, LUCA School of Arts campus C-Mine and UHasselt Faculty of Architecture and Art.

As Ford Genk was undergoing demolition, the new wing of Z33 was under construction in the nearby city of Hasselt. Lewitt retools this economic transition in his exhibition. He uses elements of the demolished factory, as well as soil from the Ford site, to set up a production line for compressed earth blocks, a low-cost building material. Inside the galleries, the stages of the production process – compressing, curing, and stacking – are separated by doors and tarps from the former factory. This dispersed presentation raises the question of where we locate the ‘work’, as an activity and as a product.

In The Time of Work, a group of artists will guide the visitor’s gaze around the building. The artistic interventions will enhance, challenge and question the architecture and what it has to offer. The inauguration of a new building is the first and only time it can be explored in all its many facets as a pure architectural object. Its walls do not yet hold a history. Expectations can therefore be very high, especially for an art space. What possibilities does it have in store for us? It is not simply a case of mere square feet. An art gallery, after all, is no warehouse. Walls, with windows and doors in them, as well as floors and ceilings, all determine how these square feet will ‘work’. They create a hierarchy that allows or hinders things, that reveals and conceals them. None of these works can come to life without the active involvement of visitors. An art space can only flourish by the grace of the commitment, the ‘performance’ of its visitors. They breathe life into it. Welcome.

Interview by Veerle Ausloos
In his ‘Mal d’Archives’ (1995), the French critic and philosopher Jacques Derrida describes the archive as an entity that absorbs, protects, conceals, but also reveals the things that connect us. We alternatingly desire or fear the flood of information with which we are confronted daily. In the eye of this visual and textual storm, the physical, mental or digital archive appears to offer a moment of repose. The same goes for the artists who test their collection of images, symbols and stories against that mass culture. It is this shared exploration that connects their work. Or as the English proverb has it: birds of a feather flock together.

FORMAT is the coaching trajectory organized by Z33 for new and promising talent working in design and architecture. Every year, several designers are given the opportunity to enhance their artistic practice and to share knowledge and networks with one another. After a year of intensive coaching, all the designs are brought together in a group exhibition. Time and space are essential components of this learning process, enabling the participants to explore boundaries and unconventional approaches. Z33 is a refuge where free experimentation, learning and failing come together.

Walking is an amateur activity. Like eating, sleeping and breathing it is one of the most elemental behaviours of human being. Yet since a few centuries, walking has also become a conscious cultural act, an aesthetic program, a form of reflection, or a complex, frequently ambivalent metaphor. During this A-Z night we walked along practices of urban design, civil engagement, activist photojournalism, performance and sound art.

The meaning of work is under pressure due to technological innovations such as digitalisation, robotisation and developments in the area of AI (Artificial Intelligence). Add the geopolitical developments and free market principles to this, and there are enough ingredients to see how daily working life is subject to change. What does this mean for artists and designers? What are the new frameworks to which we can relate and what potential roles are set aside for them? That’s the theme of A-Z night #7.

During this A-Z edition we look beyond the urban. Cities, the places of growth and innovation, are popular, also among creatives. These centres seem to give the artistic practice an impulse. But what is there outside of the urban-hotspots? What can creatives find in the periphery what they can not find in cities? And how can creatives facilitate creative impulses in the periphery?
