Parrish Smith's Expo in Het HEM: Close Range

Parrish Smith is an electronic musician with an urge to explore the possibilities with his music. Over the years he has pushed the boundaries within conventional electronic club music by entering into collaborations with diverse makers and working with interdisciplinarity. In the run up to his upcoming album, he will present an exposition at Het HEM.

In the months that Het HEM was closed to the pub­lic, he used the old bul­let fac­to­ry as the back­drop for his video project, Nev­er Break Faith, linked to his debut album Light, Cru­el & Vain (Dek­man­tel Records). For this project he col­lab­o­rat­ed with artists Alice Héron, Atil­la Yuk­sel, design­er Philip Atanasov and tech artist Roel Weer­den­burg. The video, direct­ed in col­lab­o­ra­tion with Gijs Ranitz and Djoa Lekatom­pessy, fea­tures a throne-shaped sculp­ture by Philip Atanavos and a root-like instal­la­tion by Alice Héron and the spir­i­tu­al plas­ter­work of Irma Joanne. These mon­u­men­tal objects will be on dis­play from April 8 as part of a mini-exhi­bi­tion titled, Close Range, show­ing the ver­sa­tile prac­tice of Par­rish Smith.
