Overview

An intimate dialogue at a wedding; the confessions of a young banker; hitchhikers at the gas station; a scene from an Antonioni film; a description of a Hillary Clinton clip on Youtube; Twitter feeds from UK's prime minister; voices resonating in space. The fragmented spoken narratives and multiple projections in Dorine van Meel's 'Disobedient Children' form an abstract landscape which posits the need for a new social imagination. The work's protagonist – voice by the artist herself – delivers an ode to the disobedient voices who may rupture commonly held ideologies and patterns of thinking.
