"A city is like a living organism. It is built, parts fall into disrepair, are restored and thighs continue to expand. MovinGrounds presents work by Lara Almarcegui (ES), Mame-Diarra Niang (FR) and Pim Palsgraaf (NL), in which the urban environment is constantly in motion and changing. Just like nature and people. The core of this group exhibition are the 'architectural fungi' of the Rotterdam sculptor Pim Palsgraaf. His architectural constructions proliferate upwards along walls and over stuffed animals. Palsgraaf shows nature and culture He combines existing sculptures with new work that he makes especially for the space of 38CC. Mame-Diarra Niang belongs to a new generation of artists who no longer document the urban environment or where the urban landscape serves as a backdrop for a story. herself as territory and uses landscape and architecture as visual language to express her ideas about the self In 38CC pres she enters her series The Citadel - a Trilogy (2013-2015). Lara Almarcegui shows the video Buried House. As in all her work, she here refers to the fabric of the city, which continuously assumes other guises and is thus always brimming with new possibilities. "
