‘Ola Vasiljeva and the Oceans Academy of Arts’

Ola Vasiljeva (LV/NL, 1981) presents a selection of videos from the Oceans Academy of Arts (OAOA), including works by John Hey, Felix Salut, Matthew Lutz-Kinoy and herself. A recurring phantom character emerges throughout the labyrinths and riddles of the selected videos, creating a disorientating and maze-like trip. OAOA is an amorphous artist collective founded by Vasiljeva which functions as a vessel for ideas about art and ways of showing art works. Depending on each project, the participants are interchangeable as artists, collaborators, curators or viewers.
