“When the body says Yes+” is the solo exhibition of the Dutch artist melanie bonajo. The artist is searching for an answer to the question of whether there is still a place for intimacy in our increasingly commercialised and technological world. The central theme of the exhibition is touch, literally, but also touch as our relationship to each other and the world around us.
