Open Studios

22 & 23 November 2025 | 12:00 - 17:00 | Free entry | Duinstraat 57

On November 22 and 23, See Lab opens its doors once again to the public. 

Explore the studios of See Lab makers and experience their creative practices, visit the group exhibition in the project room, enjoy delicious food and drinks in our bar, and listen to live music, in collaboration with Podium aan Zee.

About the group exhibition ‘Inside Out’

Inside Out brings together artists from See Lab in a collaborative exploration of their individual studio practices. The exhibition reflects on the significance of having a personal space for creation – a safe environment that shelters and shapes the thoughts and ideas of artists, giving them the physical space to let these evolve into different materialities.

There is an inherent vulnerability in the act of moving artworks from the privacy of the studio into the public sphere. Inside Out reveals this intimate process, turning emotions and ideas outward, not only into a physical but also a public realm. Through a wide range of different materials, from atmospheric paintings to edible sculptures and performative acts, the exhibition makes visible the nuance of the artists’ minds and emotions, and the diverse ways they give form to these inner worlds.

Through the interplay between diverse artworks and materialities, See Lab’s project space becomes a transitional area – where the private and the public, the inner and the outer, converge. Here, the thoughts, experiments, and emotions nurtured in the safety of the studio are not only transformed into physical form but also revealed in a visible space, vulnerable to the dialogue between works and the encounter with the public gaze. Inside Out invites visitors to witness this unfolding process, where creation and visibility intertwine, and the usually hidden layers of artistic practice are slowly revealed.

Life drawing session | Nice Flaps x Ariane Toussaint

You are warmly invited to the life drawing session inside the exhibition 'Ouvrages de Dames' by Ariane Toussaint. For two hours two models will pose while bathing in the pools of coloured light, acting out a choreography in the space that will contrast the abstract nature of Ariane's textile works.

The drawing session will echo the colour and geometry of the works by allowing the audience to draw it in relation to the human body. It will also help consider themes of privacy, intimacy and vulnerability that occur when thinking about curtains and the naked body.

Details:

Sunday 19th October

14:00-16:00

Location: See Lab, Scheveningen

€5-15 sliding scale

30 spaces

Drawing materials provided

De Autoriteit: De Autoriteit is a Dutch band with influences from Hip Hop, Reggae, Ska, and Funk. They are known for infectious grooves and catchy lyrics. Anyone who’s seen them live already knows: they might just be the most fun hip-hop act in the Netherlands.

DJ Le Même is a Colombian-Dutch DJ known for blending various Latin American genres, creating a dynamic fusion that gets everyone dancing.
