The exhibition features work spanning Mona Hatoum’s entire career: from her performance and videos of the 1980s to recent sculptures, installations and works on paper. This is the first comprehensive survey of the artist’s work in the Netherlands.

The title of the exhibition is taken from the work Inside Out (concrete) (2019), a ‘globe’, entirely covered by a circuitous pattern, reminiscent of intestines or the lobes of the brain. In this work Hatoum sets up a contradiction between the implied soft malleability of bodily forms and the object’s earthy construction in hard concrete.

For the Elleboogkerk in Amersfoort, Mona Hatoum created the newly commissioned installation Web (2025), a large-scale constellation of delicate, transparent glass spheres, threaded through wires to create the form of a spider’s web.
