TDe mens is geen vogel (Man is no bird) is the first Belgian solo exhibition by the internationally renowned artist Raphaela Vogel (b. 1988, Nuremberg, DE). With deadpan humor, Vogel channels the anarchic spirit of punk rock into theatrical, all-encompassing installations which blend personal experience, social themes, and emergent technology. At Z33, visitors journey through monumental installations, sculpture, paintings and a new multimedia artwork created specifically for this exhibition.
By utilising contrasting forces such as humour and alienation, or vulnerability and strength, Vogel’s artworks foreground sensation over comprehension. Her installations merge image, sound and space into complex sensory experiences. In De mens is geen vogel, Raphaela Vogel propels visitors into unsettling and fantastical environments.
