Since 2023, ILA, FOMU, and Het Bos have been working together to support emerging visual artists in their professional development. In January 2024, Agneskena launched her project “Sokoro”as part of this partnership.
Looking ahead, we aim to create a platform where emerging artists can showcase their work at Het Bos.
These exhibitions will feature not only artists’ work but also curated talks and immersive experiences, highlighting the unique contributions of Het Bos, FOMU, and ILA Foundation—three organisations united by their commitment to nurturing artistic talent.
ILA Foundation, FOMU, and Het Bos are organising a group exhibition from the 6th of February to the 15th of February, featuring the works of Yaqine Hamzaoui, Darwin Cabrera, and Salim Azaimi.

The theme of the exhibition will be decided collaboratively with the participating artists, and you may choose to showcase either existing work or create something new for the exhibition.
