The show included work by Artun Alaska Arasli, Mat Do, Nicholas Riis and Evita Vasiļjeva, and was part of Rib’s Summer Lab; bringing together young artists through an open call, developing a project over July and August together.

Chosen for their mutual interest in “materiality, the everyday and surface,” the installation brought together mixed media, sculptural objects and 3D prints, as well as an accompanying text called ‘Untitled (Text for Nose to Flees)’ by Arasli that moves like thoughts through a narrative of interactions steeped in dry humour, “like us, an avalanche has nowhere else to go, how romantic.”**

The Nose to Flees group exhibition was on at Rotterdam’s Rib Art Space, running August 19 to September 3, 2017.
