Eugenie Boon’s performance brings the VBCN OPEN exhibition ‘Greige Fantastic’ to a close. This performance was made possible with the support of the AkzoNobel Art Foundation, as part of its 30-year anniversary celebrations. Greige Fantastic explores the activation of artworks through alternative rituals, and Eugenie does the same in her performance.
