Introducing the first in our Artist Residency series in which we showcase diasporic artists.
Noni Madeleine is an Amsterdam-based artist whose paintings move like water, between worlds, between memory and becoming, between strength and softness.
She will be the first artist we welcome to take over Atelier Code Noir and adorn its walls with her art. Her exhibition ‘The Weight of Gentle Things’ will open on 5th March, 18:00-21:00, with food, wine and music.
With Curaçaoan and Dutch roots, water has always carried a double meaning for Noni: the thing that separates and the thing that connects. Her paintings hold that tension and find beauty in it.
This is art as ancestral honoring.
As spiritual practice. As proof that the in-between can be a place of power.
Don’t worry if you miss the opening exhibition, in the next few days we will announce the programming days Noni will be bringing to the space. keep an eye on our instagram: @atelier_code_noir + @nonimadeleine
