Fabric of Play explores the possibilities of material, imagination and play. French-Moroccan artist and designer Sophia Kacimi transforms existing Moroccan upholstery fabrics into colourful sculptural works and objects, giving familiar materials unexpected new forms.
Working closely with artisans, ZOUBIDA brings traditional techniques into new contexts. Every piece is made by hand, allowing the materials and the knowledge of those who make them to shape the creative process.
Drawing connections between textiles, architecture and art, the exhibition challenges familiar boundaries between objects and their surroundings. At its heart is the idea of play as a way of thinking, where curiosity and experimentation open up new possibilities.
Visitors are invited to touch, move and interact with the works, becoming exploring participants in the playful world of ZOUBIDA.
Meet ZOUBIDA (Sophia Kacimi), join a Q&A with the artist and experience a special performance created for the occasion.
The performance will take place exclusively on Saturday 21 November, between 17:30 and 18:30. This is the only opportunity to experience it.
Earlier that day, you can also visit Galerie Poche as part of Amsterdam Art's guided bike tour through Amsterdam-Noord, from 13:00 to 15:00.
Opening: 17:00–19:00
Performance: 17:30–18:30
Admission: Free
We look forward to welcoming you at Galerie Poche.
ABOUT
JAM*
At JAM* architecten, art is not only a passion, it is an obvious extension of our architectural vision. Just as architecture shapes spaces, art gives them a soul. Driven by the desire to support creation and offer a space for expression to artists, we have chosen to dedicate part of our premises to artistic emergence. A place where the imagination takes shape, where structures and materials dialogue, where each work of art converses with its environment to tell a story.
