AGAINSAW is a joint exhibition by Ngoshi Choedon and Peter George d’Angelino Tap, in which clothing is approached as a mutable cultural language. Two artistic practices come together in a shared exploration of material, memory, and transformation.
The exhibition, organized by NGO DEI, presents clothing not as a static object, but as a continuously evolving cultural language, shaped by memory, craftsmanship, embodied knowledge, and shifting systems of meaning. Clothing is approached as “worn structures of knowledge”: forms that carry historical continuity while remaining open to reinterpretation across cultural and temporal contexts.
Rather than offering a single narrative, the exhibition unfolds as a field of complexity in which multiple perspectives coexist without converging. Here, clothing emerges as a threshold state in which transmission and renewal, embodied practice and structural change, and cultural specificity and trans-regional circulation remain simultaneously present. For this occasion, the Tibetan artist Ngoshi Choedon is traveling especially from Dharamshala, India.
The exhibition is realised in cooperation with Stroom Den Haag and the International Campaign for Tibet, and marks a celebration of the 14th Dalai Lama on the occasion of his 91st birthday on 6 July 2026.
