This exhibition space was for the work of Kevin van Braak & Ipeh Nur in 2023. The exhibition was held in Brutus Rotterdam with the title of 'Petromelancholia'. The theme tackles on the topic of 'the enormous consequences of a life beyond oil' (Brutus.nl).
The works of Kevin & Ipeh roots back to the effects of oil back in Indonesia where it destroyed small communities. So with their custom made batik prints, they added prints of the activists being carried out by oil companies.
This collection is situated at the entrance/exit of the exhibition to show the activists being carried out.
