You are invited to join us on Thursday 11 July for the official opening of two new exhibitions: 

DOMINIC HAWGOOD - CASTING OUT THE SELF<a href="/museum/programme/dominic-hawgood"><img src="https://a.storyblok.com/f/113697/595x298/497e1feff0/cosmic_chakra_2016_c_dominic_hawgood595.jpg" alt="" width="595" height="298" /></a> Cosmic Chakra, 2016 &copy; Dominic Hawgood
As part of the Next Level exhibition series, Foam presents the work of multi-disciplinary artist Dominic Hawgood (1980, UK).In the exhibition&nbsp;Casting Out the Self, Hawgood visualises the effect of the drug dimethyltryptamine (DMT), which he personally experienced as a transfer into the digital realm. His work creates a hallucinatory effect: photographs seem to move, flat surfaces reveal hidden depths, and the perception of space turns out to be an illusion.

His work is a hybrid of techniques, motifs and formal languages in which he brings together painting, graphic design, sculpture, video, 3D-photography and sound design.

Official opening: Dominic Hawgood & Kévin Bray

From 12 July, Foam 3h presents the multidisciplinary work of K&eacute;vin Bray in the exhibition Morpher III. 

There is likely no other artist who mixes and matches more than K&eacute;vin Bray (France, 1989). Trained as a graphic designer at L&rsquo;&Eacute;saab (Nevers, France), then attached to the Design Department of the Sandberg Institute (Amsterdam, the Netherlands) and now a resident at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten (Amsterdam, the Netherlands), he moves with ease across the boundaries of various disciplines.

By investigating the particularities of a medium, and then stretching the visual codes, creative possibilities open up and give space to the unpredictable and otherworldly forms that are so characteristic of Bray. His work contains many art historical references but is equally apocalyptic, as if it were a backdrop for a science fiction story.
