Present Tense — A Practice in Attention

The sky is never the same, yet it is always there. In Present Tense, Marlike Marks reflects on looking, repetition, and the subtle changes that appear through time and attention. The installation brings together hundreds of photographs made through a daily practice of simply photographing the sky.

The Unfixed Line
Sept 11
The Unfixed Line

Water is never still. It shifts between reflection and depth, between what is visible and what remains hidden. The Unfixed Line brings together photographic works by Vivian Ammerlaan, François Hendrickx, Anne Kære, Merel Klomp & Elmar Janse, Marlike Marks, Sanne Romeijn, and Dineke Versluis, exploring water as a place of movement, memory, and change.

Sept 11 – 26, 2026
