Meet-a-Maker is a 30-minute session to have a one-on-one talk with artists currently working at Mediamatic. We are lucky to be inspired by the many artists who work and stay with us for exhibitions, residencies and workshops. We welcome you to meet them and be inspired as well!

About the artist

Arthur Guilleminot is an ecodeviant artist whose practice spans design, performance, fashion, and visual art. A graduate of the Gerrit Rietveld Academy, his work is a radical exploration of regenerative approaches to address our pressing need for change.

Arthur's work delves into the realm of decolonizing disgust through the lens of "Camp" aestheticism and buffoonery. His provocative visuals and vulnerable semantics pave the way for transilient, pleasureful futures. By researching tools that challenge norms and embrace the subtleties of disgust, Arthur aims to make us kinder in trusting our visceral impulses.

Don't miss the opportunity to participate in Arthur's unique Piss Soap Workshop at Mediamatic. It's a chance to actively engage with his ideas and explore unconventional perspectives on our relationship with the world.
