BROKEN PEOPLE FIXED POSITIONS, by Kooooooos and Ex.Hotel

(Friday, 17:00 – 21:00 | Register for free)

A collaborative showcase from the studios of Koooooos and Ex Hotel.

The result of a long-brewing series of small plans with biggish ambitions. Animated by many short, stolen research sessions and a willingness to publicly fail, this exhibition brings together two complimentary crafts: a first collection of ceramics figures and a long history of fine wood-working.


With references to classical sculpture and furniture from antiquity, this show explores timeless creative urges and putting one’s faults on a pedestal. An exercise in what things might have looked like if one had more time to spend on the things one loved to do.
