WET KUNST ​​

​

(wet: law [NL], kunst: art [NL] — in English, a deliberate slippage)

​

At its core, WET KUNST is a provocation. A linguistic collision. A defiant howl against propriety disguised as an exhibition. It plays on the duality of Dutch legality (wet) and creative practice (kunst), but its true meaning is rooted in subversion—art that refuses to stay contained, categorised, or controlled.

 

This exhibition at Shame Gallery is not polite. It’s not interested in being safe, digestible, or clean. WET KUNST is a manifesto of unrestrained expression, an unapologetic dive into the raw, the grotesque, the unorthodox, and the fiercely personal. Here, artists operate by their laws—no moralistic gatekeeping, no institutional chokehold. Just urgency, conviction, and vision.

Each artist in the show follows their internal directive, their compass set to risk and disruption. Together, they form a chorus of iconoclasts, boundary-breakers, and visionaries.

​

This is not about fitting in.
This is about breaking in.
